Backup is the process of copying and storing data so that the copy can be used to restore the primary source if a data loss occurs as well as to revert to an older version. Ideally, SmartStruxure server or Project Configuration Server backups should take place during non-business hours. In Building Operation, you can perform backups on an individual SmartStruxure server and its devices, a group of SmartStruxure servers and their devices, or a project.
Using WorkStation, you can back up data to the local drive of each installed Building Operation server. Building Operation stores the files by date in a predefined directory location on the server to which Workstation is connected. Per maggior informazioni, consulta Backup Sets .
Building Operation provides two backup options:
Configuration only : Useful for new installations, Building Operation backs up the configuration database, which preserves a snapshot of the configuration data for a particular date and time.
All data : Useful for existing systems, Building Operation backs up the configuration data and historical data, which preserves a snapshot of the configuration data for a particular date and includes a copy of the trend logs and event logs.
In Building Operation, there are two types of data that are backed up: Historical and Configuration.

Backup sets are compressed backup files used for restoring data. Building Operation stores the local backup set for an Enterprise Server or SmartStruxure server devices in the Local folder within the Backup sets folder.
The SmartStruxure server device stores only one backup set at a time, so each new backup operation overwrites the previous backup set. However, an Enterprise Server can store multiple backup sets locally.

A scheduled backup is an automated way to back up data on a SmartStruxure server. You can back up SmartStruxure servers individually using each SmartStruxure server’s local backup rule. You can also use backup rules to synchronize the backups of all the SmartStruxure servers on your network.

Manual Backup is a non-automated process of copying and storing data on a selected SmartStruxure server. You can use this option to create backups on an as-needed basis. You can also manually restore the data at any time.

Mass backup is a method of performing a manual, simultaneous backup of all the SmartStruxure servers in the network, which is useful for capturing data at a critical point, such as prior to an upgrade. You can choose which SmartStruxure servers you want to back up along with the type of data for each.

Before upgrading the system, it is strongly recommended that you archive the historical data and back up the SmartStruxure servers to preserve the current data and configurations. If you plan to upgrade WebReports, be sure to back up the Reports database in SQL Server.

Backup Status displays the statuses of a SmartStruxure server: Ready, Backing up, or Backup succeeded.
