Step 1: Backup Source

The following steps will show you how to set your backup set:

• Creating new backup set

• Adding the data

• Select (check) the files/folders you want to back up.

  

  Click the ‘Add’ button to specify registry keys or SQL database.

  Together with common files you can also select the particular types of predefined data sets: windows profile, e-mail or accounting software.

  

  • Registry backup

  • Just navigate over the registry tree and select the key you need to backup.

    

    [ProductName] will export specified key to registration file (.reg) and backup it.

  • SQL database backup

  • Provide the software with credentials to SQL server access and point the location where DMS will place the backup.

    

    According to specified settings [ProductName] will send query to SQL server and store the result of it execution to backup destination.

  You can specify several file masks separating them with ‘;’ (semicolon).
