Backing Up the Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003 Services
Backing up the Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003 services means backing
up the data structures used by these services. A particular database is
exported (dumped) into a file, which is then backed up. The Windows
2000/XP/Server 2003 services are always backed up if CONFIGURATION
was selected in the Backup wizard.
NOTE A Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003 service has to be up and running so
that Data Protector can detect it and show it as a selectable item in the
Backup wizard. If a service is not running at backup time, the
corresponding backup object will fail. See “Managing Failed Backups” on
page 263 for more information.
To back up a specific service, you can select the corresponding folder
under the CONFIGURATION backup object.
