Creating File Share Backup Jobs

To protect files and folders on the file share, you must configure a file share backup job. The backup job defines how, where and when to back up data from the file share. One job can be used to process one or more file shares. Jobs can be started manually or scheduled to run automatically at a specific time.

Before you create a file share backup job, check prerequisites.

To create a file share backup job, use the New File Backup Job wizard:

1. Launch the New File Share Backup wizard.
2. Specify the job name and description.
3. Select files and folders to back up.
4. Define target backup storage settings.
5. Specify advanced backup settings.
6. Specify the secondary target repository.
7. Define the job schedule.
8. Finish working with the wizard.
