Manually Backing up Your Disk
Once you protect a disk, it is automatically backed up at regular intervals unless you chose
Not Scheduled from the Recurrence list when you completed the schedule. You can also
back up a disk manually as long as a backup or recovery is not currently occurring. For
example, if you are about to install a new application, you might want to back up your
disk right before you start the installation. Therefore, if any problems occur, you can
recover your disk to the state it was in immediately before you installed the application.
To manually back up a disk:
1. Click Status.
2. In the Protected disk list, select the disk you want to back up.
3. Click Back Up Now. The Current activity area displays information about what's
happening, the percentage of the backup that has completed, and the speed at which
the data is being sent over the network. The Progress bar graphically indicates how
much of the backup is complete.
To stop a backup in progress, click Stop Current Activity.
