Scheduling a Configuration

Once you have created a configuration, you can schedule it to run regularly or at some time in the future. Here are the steps to do so:

1. Navigate to the Schedules menu in the client

2. Click Create in the upper right hand corner

3. Choose the name of this schedule

   1. Pick something descriptive, as this is what will be displayed in the client for all configuration snapshots using this schedule

4. Select which configuration you would like to schedule a backup for

   1. If you would like to schedule a future one-time backup, select Scheduled Backup in type, and either manually input a date or use the calendar widget to select the date for that backup

   2. If you would like to schedule a recurring backup, select Recurring Backup in type, and select the unit of recurrence and frequency of recurrence in the below boxes

5. Click Create

6. Note: each configuration will only create at most one task at a time, so multiple schedules will not override each other/create conflicting tasks

7. Running a one-time configuration snapshot:

   1. NOTE: Snapshots on the primary can only be run if the system is not in failover mode. Otherwise, snapshots will be run on the failover system.

   2. Navigate to the snapshots menu

   3. Click the snapshot button in the upper left hand corner

   4. Select the configuration you would like to back up

   5. Click create

8. Running a restore:

   1. NOTE: Restores on the primary can only be run if the system is in failover mode. Otherwise, restores will be run on the failover system.

   2. Navigate to the restores menu

   3. Click the restore button in the upper right hand corner

   4. Select the configuration you would like to restore and the snapshot you would like to restore

   5. Click restore
