How do I schedule auxiliary database backups?
Steps
Note: An auxiliary database backup fails unless all members of the local auxiliary database cluster are operational and available.
1 |
Record the current auxiliary database administrator password and store it in a secure location for safekeeping. The password is required if you change a database user password and then subsequently need to restore the database. Note: If you subsequently change the administrator password, ensure that you update the recorded password. | ||
2 |
Choose Administration→Database from the NFM-P menu. The Database Manager form (Edit) opens. | ||
3 |
Click on the Auxiliary Database Backups tab. | ||
4 |
Select the Run Scheduled Backups parameter. | ||
5 |
Consider the directory path when you configure the Backup Location parameter. You must specify the absolute path of a directory in a partition other than the partition that contains the database data. Configure the remaining parameters. | ||
6 |
Click OK to save your changes and close the form. End of steps |
