Back Up a Full Node

To back up an entire node containing database files, perform the following procedure:

  1. From the Source tab of the Backup Manager, select the node that you want to back up.
  2. Click the Submit button on the toolbar. If the node contains database files, the Security and Agent Information dialog opens to display a list of all databases on the node, User Names, and Passwords.
  3. Optionally, to set or change a User Name or Password, click the Security button. Enter the appropriate User Name and Password and click OK.

    In the Security dialog, you must specify User Name and Password with backup rights on that machine. For example, Administrator or root.

    Note: Arcserve Backup does not support logging in to systems with passwords that are greater than 23 characters. If the password on the system you are attempting to log in to is greater than 23 characters, you must modify the password on the agent system such that it is 23 characters or less, and then you can log in to the agent system.

  4. Click OK. The Submit dialog opens.
