3.13 Cloning backup settings
When you already have a backup and you need to create a new backup of the same type (disk, file or
e-mail backup), there is no need to configure the backup process from scratch. The program allows
you to copy all settings from an existing backup. After that, you only have to slightly correct the
copied settings for your new backup and click Back up now.
To create a new backup based on an existing backup:
1. On the main screen, find the corresponding backup box, click Operations, point to More, and
then click Clone backup settings.
A new backup box named Copy of [the initial backup name] will be created. It will contain the
same settings as the "parental" backup.
2. On the cloned backup box, click Operations, and then click Edit backup settings.
3. Change selection of items to back up. You may modify backup name, destination, and other
settings if needed.
4. Click the Save button.
5. To create the first backup version, click Back up now on the backup box.
