Section 4 - Configuration
Local
Settings:
Task (Name):
the name used to refer to the backup
job which will be listed later in the Remote Backup
list.
Folder Path:
select a local network share folder or
file as the target or source for the backup job.
Remote
Settings:
Remote IP:
The backup process uses Rsync protocol
and needs to know the IP address of the destination
source or target device for the backup. Input the IP
of the remote NAS or Linux file system.
Password:
Enter the password that is used by the
remote backup server on the remote NAS or Linux
file system.
Enable Encryption:
Checking this box will enable
SSH encryption of the files that are transferred
(backed up) over the network between the local and
remote devices.
Ignore existing file(s):
Checking this box prevents
the backup process from writing over any files in the
target file system that are not part of the backup files
or folders. Therefore any existing files in the target
system are preserved.
Incremental backup support Num (#):
Checking
this box provides multiple backup-capability at
scheduled times. The first backup in an incremental
series captures all the files for backup. Subsequent
backups are incremental in that only the files and the
folders that have changed in the backup source since
the last incremental backup will need to be backed
up. Each incremental backup builds a complete
snapshot of the backup source however only the
initial backup contains all the original files and
folders. The subsequent backups in the incremental
series contain new files and folders plus the links to
the first incremental backup.
