Using ARCserve 2000 Remote Manager 1 On the remote system, click the Start button and point to Programs→ ARCserve→ ARCserve Manager. The ARCserve Quick Access window displays. The ARCserve Quick Access window provides wizards for many common backup tasks. You can use these wizards or go through the standard menus to perform your backup tasks. 2 Enter the name of the NAS appliance in the Server field at the top of the screen to manage the backup software on the NAS appliance. You can manage all your backup jobs from this application, just as you would manage them from the local application. See the ARCserve 2000 documentation for more information on how to use the software. Backing Up Snapshots Backing up snapshots eliminates the possibility of files changing during the backup job. Snapshots always contain the data that existed when the snapshot was taken. NOTE: When backing up a snapshot, Dell recommends that you deselect the ActiveArchive subdirectory that is contained within each snapshot. If you do not deselect this subdirectory, your backup software will back up all the snapshots on your system. This action creates multiple copies of your data, which causes you to use more tapes than necessary. To back up a snapshot: 1 Use the PowerVault NAS Manager to create a snapshot. 2 Select the snapshot in your backup software. 3 Deselect the ActiveArchive subdirectory. 4 Back up the snapshot just as you would a standard file system. Limitations on Backing Up Snapshots • You cannot do incremental or differential backups of snapshots. • You cannot use GFS rotation schemes when backing up snapshots. Local Backup 1-9
