select "All Files" from the "What to upload" column.
If this version has a special representative meaning, user may select the option "Create a tag after
upload" so that after the upload is complete, this version can be created with a tag to allow for
easy restoration in the future.
PLANET NAS-5000 series Replicator allows the user to create up to 20 tags. The purpose of tag
is to help user record version of a specific time. For example, if a software engineer has already
completed program version 1.0 and is prepared to start coding version 2.0. For this engineer,
version 1.0 is the version with special representative meaning. While completing all version 1.0
program files, he/she can create a tag for these files at the specific time. In case any problem is
encountered while modifying version 2.0, the engineer can easily restore all 1.0 program files to
his machine for further modification.
5. After you have completed the selection, click "OK" button. PLANET NAS-5000 series Replicator
will backup all the files in the selected file folders to the NAS server designated.

files are updated automatically to the backup in the NAS server, this may cause heavy network
traffic. Due to consideration of performance efficiency, after running the complete backup in the
first instance user may choose not to run automatic monitoring, instead the user should manually
upload the changed files to the NAS server.
To backup any changed files, please select the file folders on your machine and the NAS server to
save backups, click "Upload" button on the right, select "Modified files since last upload" to backup
