Configuring Client Backup Policies

Adding a Client Application Object

To backup a client application such as Outlook or Outlook Express, you must configure an application object, a schedule, and a backup task that includes both the application object and the schedule. This section describes how to create the application object.

To create a client application object, perform the following steps:

Step 1

In the SonicWALL CDP Agent User Interface, click the Policies tab.

Step 2

In the left pane, click Applications.

 

Step 3

In the right pane, click the Plus button

at the lower right corner. The Add Application window

 

opens.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 4 Type a descriptive name for the application object into the Name field.

Note With the exception of Outlook and Outlook Express, only applications that are installed on your local computer will display in the Add Application window.

Step 5 Select the desired application from the Application drop-down list. The list of available applications is automatically populated through a discovery process.

Step 6 Under Application items, select the checkboxes for one or more items to back up. Step 7 In the Add Application window, click OK to add the application object.
