A synchronized backup is a method of performing a recurring, simultaneous backup of a selected number of SmartStruxure servers. You can use a lead and shadow relationship to automate all the SmartStruxure server backups on your network. Using this method, you configure and manage one lead backup rule on one SmartStruxure server, which other backup rules can reference.
The system synchronizes all the shadow rules with the lead backup rule, and all the shadow schedules with the lead schedule. For more information, see Synchronizing SmartStruxure Server Backups on a Network .
