Step 2 – Select Backup Destination
The Step 2 process is almost identical to Step 1 except that you are now specifying the backup
destination. If you selected a remote backup source, you need to select a public or a private home
share on the ReadyNAS 3200 (either the source or destination must be local to the ReadyNAS
3200). If you selected a ReadyNAS 3200 share for the source, you can either enter another local
ReadyNAS 3200 share for the destination, or you can specify a remote backup destination.
Figure 4-3
The remote backup destination can be any of the items on the list, including an iSCSI LUN (if
iSCSI is enabled), a Remote Windows PC/ReadyNAS 3200 system, Remote Website, a Remote
FTP site, a Remote NFS Server, a Remote Rsync server, a ReadyNAS Share, or a USB Device
(Front, Back Top or Bottom). Note that you can select rsync for a remote ReadyNAS 3200 if it is
configured to serve data over rsync.
Step 3 – Choose Backup Schedule
You can select a backup schedule as frequently as once every 4 hours daily or just once a week.
The backup schedule is offset by 5 minutes from the hour to allow you to schedule snapshots on
the hour (snapshots are almost instantaneous) and perform backups of those snapshots (see "MAC
OS X Time Machine Backup" on page 4-9 to set up a snapshot schedule).
Note: Backup jobs cannot go past midnight to the next day. Set a backup job start stop
time that does not traverse midnight.
If you wish, you can elect not to schedule the backup job so that you can invoke it manually
instead by clearing (deselecting) the Perform backup every... check box. (You might want to do
this if your ReadyNAS has a backup button.)
