Step 5: Review Configurations

  • The last step in your backup process is to review the configurations you have selected. Enter a Backup Job Name. BDRSuite Backup Server supports creating multiple backup schedules each with its own configuration. The backup job name will uniquely identify the backup. While restoring your backup data, you need to choose the data to be restored using its schedule name.
  • Review the configurations provided and enter an appropriate name for the backup job.
  • The following details will be available on this page for review:
  • Selected Drives - The Drives/Disks you have configured for the backup process
  • Schedule - Frequency of your incremental backup schedule
  • Application-aware Processing - Enabled/Disabled the Appaware process
  • File Exclusion - Enabled/Disabled the exclusion of System Files
  • Backup Retention - The settings you have configured in the retention
  • Full Backup Schedule - Full Backup schedule frequency
  • Backup Encryption - Status of the encryption, whether enabled or disabled
  • Encryption Hint - (Applicable only if encryption is enabled)
  • You have the option of running the backup job immediately after saving the backup. If you want your backup job to be triggered immediately after you save the backup, irrespective of the backup schedule you have configured, select the Run this job immediately after the saving option.
  • Click Save the backup option once all the configurations are reviewed. On saving the backup, you will be prompted to confirm to proceed further. Click OK to complete the backup progress

InformationNote:

There are few rules to be followed for specifying the job name. They are:

  1. Only [a-z][A-Z][0-9][ - _ ] characters are allowed in the job name. Other Special Characters are not allowed in the job name
  2. The job name should not be more than 26 characters
