The Backups section allows to view as files and folders and also save locally contents of Dr.Web Server critical data backup copies.
During backup, the following objects are saved: repository settings, configuration files, encryption keys, certificates, embedded database backup.
Dr.Web Server critical data backup copies are saved in the following cases:
•As a result of the Back up critical server data task execution according to the Server schedule.
•As a result of back up when running the Server executable file from the command line with the backup switch. This command is described in details in the Appendices documents, in the H4.5. Backup of Dr.Web Server Critical Data.
View Information on Backups
To view information on the backup, select the object related to the necessary backup in the hierarchical tree. Backups are placed in the tree according to the directories of their storage: the var/backups default folder, and also all paths of backup storage specified in the Server schedule tasks.
When selecting backup directories or files, the properties panel with the following information on the object is opened: Type, Size (for separate file only), Creation date and Modification date.
Manage Backups
To manage backups, use the following buttons on the toolbar:
Backup—back up Server critical data.
Export—save the backup of selected object to the computer on which the Control Center is opened.
Delete selected objects—delete objects selected in the tree without possibility to restore.
To save the backup locally, perform the following actions:
1.In the hierarchical tree, select the necessary backups (to select entire backup, it is enough to select in the tree the folder that corresponds to this backup), or separate files from the backup composition. To select several objects, use ctrl or shift.
Please note the general type of exported objects during the export:
a)Zip archives of the backups are saved for the following selected objects:
•One or several entire backups (when selecting folders which correspond to the backups).
•Several separate files from the backups composition.
b)Separate files from the backups composition. If only one file have been selected for the export, it will be saved as it is without archiving.
2.Click Export on the toolbar.
3.Specify the path to save selected objects according to the web browser settings in which the Control Center is opened.
To back up Server critical data, click Backup on the toolbar. The data will be saved into gz archive. Backup files are similar to files which are obtained when running the Server executable file from the command line with the backup switch.
This command is described in details in the Appendices documents, in the H4.5. Backup of Dr.Web Server Critical Data.
