Once you have entered a schedule, backups proceed automatically. You may

overwrite the old backup data.
Note: A backup tape will wear out over time. Please ensure that you
replace it regularly with a new tape, according to the manufacturer’s
recommendations.
Scheduled backups are useful in the event of emergencies, but you should still
perform an immediate full-system backup before proceeding with any
significant hardware or software procedures to ensure that no data is lost.
Restoring the system
Should the system fail, a recent backup tape allows you to restore the system
to the point at which the backup was made.
