For extra protection for your data, you can back up your databases periodically.

Before you begin

To back up the Directory database on a schedule, see Backing up the Directory database.

Procedure

  1. From the Config Tool homepage, open the System task and click the Roles view.
  2. Select a role, and click the Resources tab.
  3. Click Backup/restore ().
  4. In the Backup/Restore dialog box, turn on the Enable automatic backup option.
  5. Select the day and time to perform the backup (every day or once a week).
    Tip: It is a good idea to stagger the backup operations if you need to back up different databases on the same machine.
  6. Specify how many backup files you want to keep.
    NOTE: Backup files you create manually are not counted in the number of retained backup files.
  7. Click OK > Apply.

Results

The automatic backup starts at the next scheduled date and time.
