User Guide

The default backup location cannot be deleted. If you try to do so, the program will clean
the default backup location and issue an appropriate message. To delete the location
completely, first reassign the default backup location by selecting Specify Default
Settings -> Set backup location.
Cleaning and deleting backup locations might be time-consuming operations, so you can
schedule them for the off-peak period.
4.5.6 Managing Archives
To display a full list of backups, stored on the backup server, click Manage Backup
Archives.
You can:
1. Sort the list by Location or Owners (users and computers) by clicking on the respective
item above the list.
2. Filter out from the list all user’s or all computer’s backups (use buttons in the Filter
group).
3. Consolidate any backup (except for the oldest one in the archive) with the preceding
backup file. The resulting file will preserve all data changes, contained in both files and have
the latest backup date. Thus, the archive integrity will not be affected, in spite of the fact
that one backup will disappear. Data recovery from any of the remaining backups will be
possible.
