Table 68 Protect > Backup: Step 1
LABEL | DESCRIPTION |
Backup Type | Choose the backup type that you want the NSA to implement for the |
| backup job. |
| Archive - This is a backup of the source folder in an archive format. |
| Once you backup your files in the target folder, you cannot access the |
| files individually unless you have the extracting tool used by the NSA. |
| If there are existing files in the target folder prior to the NSA’s backup |
| job, the files remain undisturbed. You can also choose between the |
| following types of archive: |
| • Full - The NSA does a fresh backup each time. This provides the |
| most protection but also requires the most storage space. |
| • Incremental - The NSA backs up new or modified files from the |
| source folder since the last backup. The first backup is a full |
| backup. You can also do a full backup after several incremental |
| backups. Enter how many incremental backups the NSA runs |
| before it performs a full backup of the source folder. You must |
| keep the latest full backup to be able to restore the files later. |
| Synchronization - This does a backup of individual files. If you use |
| this type, you cannot use the Restore feature of the NSA. You can |
| also choose between the following types of synchronization: |
| • Mirror - The NSA deletes all data in the target folder before |
| running the backup. It makes the target folder identical to the |
| source folder. |
| • Publish- The NSA does a backup of individual files to the target |
| folder without overwriting existing files in that folder. It makes a |
| copy of the source files. |
