Creating a backup job
Hi again everyone,
I was having issues with my media server and i believe to have most of it fixed but i want to create a new selection list and a new backup job policy that runs automatically as it was doing before. I did not setup the previous server.
So far i have gone to File > New > Backup Selection List and selected everyhting i need backed up.
My question is.. now what.. ?? Do i create a new policy and associate the list with the policy or do i create a new backup job and associate the list with this new job?
thanks for the help as always!
Either ways. You can create a new job (manually or using the new job wizard) and then specify your selection list OR you can create a new policy first and then create a new job specifying the policy and the selection list.
There are multiple ways to create a new backup job and it depends upon your convenience, settings etc.
1) Create a backup job and choose the settings, selections while creating the backup job itself.
2) Create a selection list and then create a new backup job using this selection list. Settings will have to be specified.
3) Create a selection list. Create a policy. Create a backup job using the previously created policy and the selection list.
