SonicWALL CDP 6.0 Administrator’s Guide
Note
Before the backup will occur, you must also configure a schedule for this application object,
and a backup task that includes both the application object and the schedule.
Scheduling Backups for System State and Active Directory
A schedule is required when creating an Application backup task to backup System State and
Active Directory. You can use the same schedule object in more than one backup task.
For instructions on creating a schedule object, see the
“Creating Schedules for Application
Backups” section on page 124
.
Configuring a Backup Task for System State
A backup task includes both an application object and a schedule for the backup. Without a
backup task, no backups will occur.
For offsite backup, you can choose the
Send All Files Offsite
option when adding or editing a
backup task.
Note
Before creating a backup task, create the application object and schedule to be included in
the task.
