Figure 9.23: Add Task Wizard - Specify DSView System Backup Properties Window
a. Type the directory in which to create the system backup, which may be a local drive on the
DSView Server or at a network location specified by a UNC path.
NOTE: The directory name must be entered in case-sensitive text if your operating system supports case-
sensitive filenames.
b. Click Login required to access shared drive location if the location specified is a network
path that requires a log in. Then, type the username and password and confirm the
password of a user account that has read/write access to the network share location.
NOTE: The Location field cannot be set to a mapped network drive. It must be set to either a physical local drive
or a shared network location specified as a UNC path.
c. Click Encrypt Backup File to encrypt the created system backup file and type a password
used to lock and unlock the encrypted file.
d. Click Use date and time for file naming to append the date and time (in military time) to the
end of the system backup file name. For example, if you are creating the backup file on
October 1, 2004 at 10:04 pm, the file created will be named dsviewBackup1001042204.zip.
NOTE: If a system backup file already exists in the specified directory and this option is not used, the existing
backup file will be overwritten when the new backup file is created.
