Backup Options

You can back up any or all of the following directories in the user data file system: Mail, HTML documents, Anonymous FTP, and Users' homes, and Netra configuration files. When the backup is complete, the module reports all the directories and files that have been saved via an E-mailed report to the system administrator (root) user.

The users' home directory option does not back up the system administrator's home directory. For user-specified directories and files, there is an upper limit on the number of characters in the file descriptor: for the path name, the maximum length is 155 characters; for the file name, 100 characters.

The following backup options are available:

• Set backup options. Enables you to schedule days of the week and times for regular backups.

• Immediate backup. Enables you to back up the file system at any time. This does not affect the scheduled backup.

Only a single-tape backup is supported, and the tape is rewound after the backup process is completed.
