Bước 3: Create Job backup
After initializing the Repository, you will proceed to create an automatic backup job to vStorage. Creating a backup job allows you to set up a regular automatic backup to the storage (repository). If you create a job running on a Scale-out Repository, it means that running the job can backup to multiple locations.
Follow these steps to create a Backup Job:
In the "Inventory" section, select "Backup Job" choose the appropriate type of computer;
In the "Job Mode" screen, click "Next";
In the "Name" screen, you can name the Job, then click "Next";
In the "Computer" screen, select the computer you want to backup, then click "Next";
In the "Backup Mode" screen, select a mode then click "Next";
Choose "Entire Computer" to backup the entire computer, if you select this mode you can skip step 6.
Choose "File level backup (slower)" to backup selected files or folders, if you select this mode then proceed to step 6.
In the "Object" screen, select the objects to be backed up, then click "Next";
In the "Storage" screen, select the Repository, then click "Next";
In the "Guest Processing" screen, deselect all options, then click "Next";
In the "Schedule" screen, you can set up a periodic backup schedule, then click "Apply";
In the "Summary" screen, if you choose "Run the job when I click Finish" to run the backup when the Job creation is successful, then click "Finish" to let the system create and run the synchronization job.
