Check_MK rack1 Mark III - Manual
Once you have created your key, download it and retain it in a secure location.
Important
An encrypted backup can only be restored with the encryption key and its corresponding pass-
word.
Now, from the Appliance backup, edit the backup job that is to create the encrypted backups, there
activate the Encryption item and select the freshly created encryption key.
Once you have confirmed the dialog, the next backup will be automatically encrypted.
11.5 Compression
It is possible to compress the data during the copy procedure. This can be useful if you need to save
bandwidth or if space on the target system is limited.
But please be aware however that the compression requires noticeably more CPU time and therefore
the backup procedure will take longer. As a rule it is advisable not to activate compression.
Tip
Uncompressed backups are first supported from Check_MK-Version 1.2.8p5. If you run monitoring in-
stances with older versions, you must activate compression for the complete backup.
