Backing Up Server Applications
Scheduling Backups for InfoStore
A schedule is required when creating an Application backup task to backup Exchange InfoStore databases. You can use the same schedule object in more than one backup task.
For instructions on creating a schedule object, see the “Creating Schedules for Application Backups” section on page 57.
Configuring a Backup Task for InfoStore Backups
A backup task includes both an application object and a schedule for the backup. Without a backup task, no backups will occur.
For offsite backup, you can choose the Send All Files Offsite option when adding or editing a backup task.
Note Before creating a backup task, create the application object and schedule to be included in the task.
To create a backup task for an InfoStore backup, perform the following steps:
Step 1 In the SonicWALL CDP Agent User Interface, click the Policies tab. Step 2 In the left pane, select Backup Tasks.
Step 3 In the right pane, click the Plus button at the lower right corner. The Add Backup Task window opens.
Step 4 Type a descriptive name for the backup task into the Name field. Step 5 Select Application from the Select File Type
Step 6 Select the desired application object from the Application Data
Step 7 Type the desired number of backup revisions to keep into the Number of Versions field. The default is 2.
Step 8 The Trimming Algorithm field is not configurable for Application policies. The field displays the type of trimming algorithm in use.
