Global Backup Options

This section describes the global backup options you can select when submitting your backup job. To access the global options dialog, click the Options toolbar button in the Backup Manager.

Global options (also referred to as job-wide options) define the procedures and rules that Arcserve Backup uses to back up all nodes (servers, workstations, and applications) that you define for the particular backup job. The global options that you define for one backup job do not affect the global options that you define for any other backup job.

For a description of additional backup job options and filtering features, see Customizing Jobs.
