Backing up or restoring the imagePRESS Server

The following tasks describe using Backup and Restore on WebTools. Fiery QuickTouch uses the same menu selections and
features for backing up and restoring the

imagePRESS Server

. Refer to the following tasks if you are using Backup and Restore

on Fiery QuickTouch.

To setup automatic scheduled backup

NOTE:
When you set up the scheduled backup, only the latest backup will be stored. Previous backups will be deleted.

1. In the Backup and Restore window, click Fiery System Image > Schedule Backup.

If you have not logged in as an Administrator user, you are required to do so. Enter the administrator’s password, and click
Log In.

2. Select Enable automatic backup, and select when you want to start the backup process on the

imagePRESS Server

NOTE:

The backup process takes more than an hour to complete and it requires the

imagePRESS Server

to be Idle status. If the

imagePRESS Server

is not in Idle status, the backup process does not start.

3. Click Save.

To backup manually

1. In the Backup and Restore window, click Fiery System Image.

2. In Fiery System Image, select one of the following options:

•

Backup Now> USB:

Select this option if you want to create a backup on a USB flash drive.

•

New image:

Select this option if you want to create a backup of the current

imagePRESS Server

. You can select Create

bootable image option to make the USB flash drive a bootable device.

•

Fiery factory image:

Select this option if you want to create a backup of the

imagePRESS Server

factory image. When

you select this option, the Create bootable image option enables automatically.

If you select Create bootable image option, the USB device or hard disk drive specified as a destination becomes a bootable
device. Select this option when you want to boot the

imagePRESS Server

from the backup device to avoid the situation

where the HDD fails and cannot boot the

imagePRESS Server

. See

“Using bootable USB storage device to restore” on page

for booting from the bootable device. Bootable device is used for system restoration when a hardware failure occurs.

NOTE:

The minimum size required for the USB flash drive depends on the actual size of the backup file. You can determine the size of
the backup file by checking the Estimated size: field in the Create USB Backup dialog box. Prepare a USB flash drive with enough
capacity.

NOTE:

Due to Windows file system restriction, the maximum size of the USB flash drive you can use is 32GB if you enable the Create
bootable image option. You can use the USB flash drive with more than 32GB capacity without enabling the Create bootable image
option.

•

Backup Now> Internal hard drive:

Select this option if you want to create a backup on the HDD of the

imagePRESS

Server

. You must specify the file name of the backup image. The default image name is the server name of the

imagePRESS Server
