How to
Synchronizing SmartStruxure Server Backups on a Network
You synchronize all SmartStruxure server backups to increase efficiency by centralizing the automated backup management on a single SmartStruxure server, rather than across multiple SmartStruxure servers.
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 .
In WorkStation, on the Tools menu, click Control Panel .
On the Control Panel toolbar, select the Enterprise Server.
