Scheduling Backups

You can schedule a route set backup to run now, daily, or weekly. If you create a backup to run now, a scheduled task is created and listed in the scheduled tasks table. Once it runs, the scheduled task is removed from the table.

Note:

A maximum of three route set backups for each type of backup can be scheduled. For example, for a route set named national, you can schedule three backups scheduled Now, another three scheduled Daily, and a final three scheduled Weekly.

1. Expand the Route Manager slider, and click Backup/Restore.
2. In the Route Set Backups tab, click Add.
3. In the Add Scheduled Backups dialog box, complete the following fields:

   Name	Description
   Name field	The name of the route set backup.
   Route Set drop-down list	Select the route set you want to backup.
   Run Daily at drop-down list	Select from each of the following options and the time each of the following options runs: Click Now to create a backup task that runs immediately. Click Daily to create a backup task that runs once a day at the selected time from the drop-down list. Click Weekly to create a backup task that runs weekly at a selected time on the day of the week you select from the drop-down lists.

4. Click OK.
   The route set backup task is added to the table. If it is scheduled to run now, it is deleted from the table after the process completes.
