4-4 Backing up Your System
Besides automatic backups to predefined schedules and backup operations perform by the network
administrator from the Administrator’s console, clients can manually create Incremental Backup
Points at any time.
Note: This function is available only when allowed by the Administrator.
To create an Incremental Backup Point
1. Select the Quick Start page and click Quick Backup under I want to perform…, or select the
System Backup page and click Quick Backup.
2. Enter a name for the backup point. You can choose to leave the default name. Click Next to start
creating the Incremental Backup Point.
3. RestoreIT will lock the hard drive during this process. If any program is currently writing to or
reading from the hard drive, it will stop creating the backup point. If your computer locks up
during this time, restart it manually and try again.
Note: RestoreIT does not create new backup points if it is unable to lock your hard drive.
Close ALL applications when you create a new backup point.
