5 Setting Up Backup Sets
A backup set contains all backup settings of a backup operation. This section will describe all features available
within a backup set and explain how you can use each of them to achieve various tasks.
Each backup account can have multiple backup sets. Each backup set is an individual and independent entity. For
example, if you want one directory to be backed up during the day and another directory to be backed up during
the night, you can create two backup sets, each with a different backup schedule and backup source, to serve this
need.
To create a new backup set, simply click [Backup Set] -> [New] and choose a backup set type. For example, let’s
create a “File Backup Set” for the rest of this chapter.
5.1 Backup Set Type
A backup set can be of one of the following types:
Backup Type Description
