A job template contains a series of settings such as the destination, options, and schedule information for the job. Similar to job scripts, a template can also contain any filters you created to include and exclude files and directories.
Job templates are different, however, from job scripts because they provide the flexibility to repeat custom backup schedule settings on other Arcserve Backup machines. Because the job template does not retain the backup source information as the job script does, the template files can be copied and applied to any new server source running Arcserve Backup. But, job scripts cannot be modified to accommodate new server sources.
You can choose from seven default job templates or you can create a custom template to meet your individual backup needs. The default job templates are designed to meet specific backup tasks such as rotation scheme, backup method, and GFS options. The default job templates can be accessed from the File menu when you choose the Open Job Template option.
