DESCRIPTION
Enter a name to identify the backup job.
Enter a short description (up to 100 keyboard characters) for the backup job.
Choose the backup type that you want the NSA to implement for the backup job.
Archive - This is a backup of the source folder in an archive format. Once you backup your
files in the target folder, you cannot access the files individually unless you have the
extracting tool used by the NSA. If there are existing files in the target folder prior to the
NSA's backup job, the files remain undisturbed. You can also choose between the following
types of archive:
• Full - The NSA does a fresh backup each time. This provides the most protection but
also requires the most storage space.
• Incremental - The NSA backs up new or modified files from the source folder since the
last backup. The first backup is a full backup. You can also do a full backup after several
incremental backups. Enter how many incremental backups the NSA runs before it
performs a full backup of the source folder. You must keep the latest full backup to be
able to restore the files later.
Synchronization - This does a backup of individual files. If you use this type, you cannot
use the Restore feature of the NSA. You can also choose between the following types of
synchronization:
• Mirror - The NSA deletes all data in the target folder before running the backup. It
makes the target folder identical to the source folder.
• Publish- The NSA does a backup of individual files to the target folder without
overwriting existing files in that folder. It makes a copy of the source files.
