Scheduling Configuration File Archiving

You can schedule regular archival configuration file uploads on a daily or weekly basis. You can also set
a limit on how many configuration files per device will be saved (you can limit by time, or by the
number of files). The archive feature can initiate uploads from multiple devices concurrently, thus
speeding up the process of backing up the configurations from your devices.
To schedule uploads on a regular basis, click Archive or select the Archive command from the Config
menu.
The Schedule Upload window has three tabs:
• From the Device Schedule tab you can select a set of devices you want to upload, in a similar
manner to performing a regular upload, but you also specify a repeating schedule. You can schedule
archive uploads to occur as follows:
— Every day at a time you specify
— Once a week on the day and at the time you specify
You can create different schedules for different sets of devices, or for individual devices.
• From the Global Schedule tab you can set an archive schedule for all devices other than those that
have individual or group schedules set. The Global Schedule lets you set an archive schedule for
"everyone else."
