Best practices for backing up your data 55 After defining your backup job ■ Do not run a disk defragmentation program during a backup. Doing so will significantly increase the time that it takes to create the recovery point and might cause unexpected system resource issues. ■ If you have two or more drives that are dependent on each other, you should include both drives in the same backup. This provides the safest protection. ■ Include multiple drives in the same defined backup to reduce the total number of backups that must be run. Doing so minimizes interruptions while you work. ■ Use the Progress and Performance feature to reduce the impact of a backup on your computer's performance. For example, if a scheduled backup starts while you are in the middle of a presentation, you can slow down the backup to give more processing resources back to your presentation program. ■ The power management features on a computer can conflict with Norton Ghost during a backup. For example, your computer might be configured to go into hibernation mode after a period of inactivity. You should consider turning off the power management features during a scheduled backup. ■ If a backup is interrupted, consider running it again. ■ If you experience problems while creating a backup, you may need to reboot the computer. After defining your backup job All backup jobs you define are automatically saved so that you can edit or run them later. After you define a backup and schedule it to run, you can close Norton Ghost. The program does not need to be running for a backup to start. However, your computer must be turned on and Windows must be running at the time a backup occurs. If not, any scheduled backups are skipped until the computer is turned on again. You then are prompted to run the missed backup.
