Initiating Backups
By default, backups are performed at night for up to 25 client computers in a sequential
order. If the client computer is asleep or hibernating at that time, the backup software can be
enabled to wake up the client computer, back it up, and put it back to sleep.
You may start a backup either through the
Launchpad
on the computer being backed up
or through the Dashboard.
