6.7. Exporting archives and backups

The export operation creates a copy of an archive or a self-sufficient part copy of an archive in the
location you specify. The original archive remains untouched.
The export operation can be applied to:
•
a single archive - an exact archive copy will be created
•
a single backup - an archive consisting of a single full backup will be created. The export of an
incremental or a differential backup is performed using consolidation of the preceding backups
up to the nearest full backup
•
your choice of backups belonging to the same archive - the resulting archive will contain only the
specified backups. Consolidation is performed as required, so the resulting archive may contain
full, incremental and differential backups.
Usage scenarios
Export enables you to separate a specific backup from a chain of incremental backups for fast
recovery, writing onto removable or detachable media or other purposes.
By exporting a managed vault to a detachable media, you obtain a portable unmanaged vault that
can be used in the following scenarios:
•
keeping an off-site copy of your vault or of the most important archives
•
physical transportation of a vault to a distant branch office
•
recovery without access to the storage node in case of networking problems or failure of the
storage node
•
recovery of the storage node itself.
Export from an HDD-based vault to a tape device can be considered as simple on-demand archive
staging.
