How to Run a Backup Job?

Top  Previous  Next

To start a backup click the Backup button (howtorunabackupitemb1) from the application's toolbar or press F6.

 

During the execution of the backup, you will see a Backup image appear in front of the icon chosen for the backup job. If the backup is finished successfully (without errors and warnings) this image will disappear restoring the initial view of the backup jobs' icon.

If one or more files could not be backed up (not enough user rights etc.), then the Warning icon appears in front of the default backup job icon, after the backup finished. Read the log files (from View->Job Logs->Last Backup log) for details about the files that were not backed up. The Warning icon will disappear when the backup is executed again and all files were backed up.

If an error occurred during backup and the backup was aborted, the Error icon appears in front of the backup job. Read the log files (from View->Job Logs->Last Backup log) for details about the errors. The icon will disappear when the backup is executed again and the execution is successful.
