Method

Benefits

Manual

Performed on an as-needed basis, for example, prior to upgrading an Enterprise Server or Enterprise Central. When a Manual Archive is created, the temporary archive data is not deleted. Manual archive creates an incremental archive of everything since the last archiving, manual or scheduled.

Scheduled

Automatically generated by the system at regularly scheduled intervals. When a Scheduled Archive completes, the temporary archive data is deleted.

Scheduled archiving is an automated way of preserving historical data. For convenience, the system provides a default digital schedule, which is bound to the Archive Manager. You can modify, but not delete, this Archive schedule. Para obtener más información, consulte Archiving Overview .
