10.12.3 Backup: Step 3
Use this screen to specify compression, encryption and purge policies for the backup job. This step is only available if you are doing an archive backup or a synchronization backup to a remote target.
Figure 137 Protect > Backup: Step 3
The following table describes the labels in this screen.
Table 78 Protect > Backup: Step 3
LABEL | DESCRIPTION |
Compression | Select Yes if you want NSA to compress the files for your backup. Otherwise, choose No. |
| In an Archive backup, compression is a method of packing computing files in a way that |
| saves hard disk space. |
| For a Synchronization backup (to a remote target), the source data will be compressed |
| before the transmission to reduce the transmission time. It is used in slow networks only. |
|
|
Encryption | Select Yes if you want NSA to encrypt the files for your backup. Otherwise, choose No. |
| In an Archive backup, this means using a password to secure files. |
| For a Synchronization backup (to a remote target), this means securing the file transfer |
| session. However the final file stored on the remote NSA is unencrypted. This takes a long |
| time. Make sure you really need this feature before enabling it. |
|
|
Bandwidth | Restrict the bandwidth of synchronization backups to help stop them from using all of your |
| network connection’s available bandwidth. This is more important when backing up to a |
| remote NSA or computer through the Internet. |
