Perform Backup Automatically (Scheduled)

Automatic backup jobs are the same as manual backup jobs, except they are triggered at pre-configured days and times. You can configure automatic backup jobs using the Backup Schedule dialog. For more information, see Specify Schedule Settings.

The process for scheduling an automatic backup is as follows:

  1. Based upon the configured time settings, Arcserve UDP Agent (Windows) triggers the launching of each type of scheduled backup job (Full, Incremental, and Verify).
  2. Configuration settings specified in the Backup Settings dialogs are applied to the job.
  3. If configured, an email notification is sent to the recipients informing them when the backup job is completed (or if a problem occurred that prevented the scheduled backup job from being completed).
