Backing Up Your Final Cut Server Catalog
The backup feature is accessible through Final Cut Server System Preferences.
You have two options for backing up your Final Cut Server catalog: backing it up
immediately or scheduling regular backups.
To back up your Final Cut Server catalog immediately:
1 Select the Backup pane of Final Cut Server System Preferences.
2 Click the Back Up Now button.
A dialog appears in which you enter the filename and location for the backup file.
Important: It is strongly recommended that you do not choose a location for the
backup file that is on the same drive that Final Cut Server is installed on.
3 Click the Back Up button.
A compressed file with a “.zip” extension is created and saved at the specified location.
