Chapter 3. Implementing the INRANGE FC/9000 Fibre Channel Director 209
The database file created by this manual backup could be used for IN-VSN
database restore. However, in real life it may be difficult to perform manual
backups periodically, since you need access to the IN-VSN server interface.
Therefore, it is possible to set up an automatic IN-VSN database backup.
We recommend that you utilize this function, as it saves time, increases our
recoverability, and does not rely on human memory to start the process.
The setup of autobackup is also done using the IN-VSN server interface. From
the configuration menu, select AutoBackUp as shown in Figure 3-25.
Figure 3-25 AutoBackUp settings: Step 1
In the Auto Backup Settings window, activate the AutoBackupUp field as shown
in Figure 3-26.

Again, we recommend placement of the backup file on a network device to
achieve higher recoverability. We have decided to implement a backup interval of
two hours instead of one hour as shown in Figure 3-27.
