Table 6-6
Advanced options for drive-based backups
Description
Option
Splits the recovery point into smaller files
and specifies the maximum size (in MB) for
each file.
For example, if you plan to copy a recovery
point to ZIP disks from your backup
destination, specify a maximum file size of
100 MB, according to the size of each ZIP
disk.
Divide into smaller files to simplify archiving
SmartSector technology speeds up the
copying process bycopying only the
hard-disk sectors that contain data.
However, in some cases, you might want to
copy all sectors in their original layout,
whether or not they contain data.
Lets you copy used and unused hard-disk
sectors. This option increases process time
and usually results in a larger recovery point.
Disable SmartSector
Copying
Lets you run a backup even if there are bad
sectors on the hard disk. Although most
drives do not have bad sectors, the potential
for problems increases during the lifetime
of the hard disk.
Ignore bad sectors during copy
Sets a password on the recovery point when
it is created. Passwords can include standard
characters. Passwords cannot include
extended characters, or symbols. (Use
characters with an ASCII value of 128 or
lower.)
A user must type this password before he or
she can restore a backup or view the contents
of the recovery point.
Use password
Encrypts recovery point data to add another
level of protection to your recovery points.
Choose from the following encryption levels:
Low (8+ character password)
Medium (16+ character password)
High (32+ character password)
