Creating a Custom Backup

To:

Maintain archive

copies of files

Do this:

Under Options, select Keep Daily/Weekly/Monthly

archive.

This option maintains archive copies, even if the number

of backup copies has been exceeded. For example, if you

specify that DataKeeper maintain the last five versions of

a backup, and Keep daily/weekly/monthly archive is

selected, DataKeeper does the following:

• Saves the most recent five versions of the specified

files.

• Overwrites the five files in rotation, replacing the

oldest file each time.

• Saves up to seven daily, five weekly, and 12 monthly

archive copies in addition to the five most recent files.

• Does not create a daily, weekly, or monthly version of

files that have not changed since the last backup.

• Does not create a daily archive if the number of serial

backups has not been reached. For example, if you set

DataKeeper to maintain a history of five versions and

you only make four one day, DataKeeper does not

create an archived version for that day.
