How to Schedule an Archive on the Backup Server for a UNIX Client

1. Start the Backup administration program.

   Change to a different Backup server, if necessary.

2. Create an archive request.

   • You must enter an annotation as part of the archive request.

   • In the Status attribute, select either Start Now or Start Later.

   • In the Save Set attribute, specify the path of the files you want to archive.

   • Specify any options, such as verify, clone, and groom.

   For specific instructions on how to use the Backup administration program, refer to the online help.

3. Apply your selections.

   To view information about scheduled archives, such as the status of the archive request and the name of the archive request, display the Archive Request Control resource. If you specified a notification command in the Archive Completion attribute of the Archive Request resource, Backup sends a notification when the archive is finished.
