LABEL | DESCRIPTION |
Compression | This field is |
| compression. |
| Compression reduces the size of the file that you want to back up. |
| Backup is then faster, but restoring may be slower, so if backup space |
| is not a concern and recovery speed is, then turn off compression. |
|
|
Encryption | This field is |
| encryption. |
| You can have the NSA use a password to encrypt the backup files. |
|
|
Bandwidth | For backups to a remote NSA, you can restrict the bandwidth to help |
| prevent the backups 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. |
|
|
Purge Policy | The NSA maintains the files that have been included in your backups. |
| However to save hard disk space, you can choose to delete files that |
| have been included in previous backups. |
| • Select Keep All Old Backup files to store all files that have been |
| included in previous backups. |
| • If you want to store a certain number of backup files, select Keep |
| Only the last n backup files |
| 30 to specify how many backups the NSA stores. All backup files |
| older than the last one are deleted. You will not be able to recover |
| files that existed (only) in those previous backups. Select this if |
| backup space is limited and recovery of old files is not important. |
| • If you want to store all backups for a certain time period, select |
| Keep Backups for n |
| to 3650 to specify how many days the NSA stores all backup files. |
| After this day has expired, all backup files will be deleted. |
