If you create numerous, complex tasks, it is a good idea to back them up to another location, in case they are accidentally deleted in EFT. You can also create backups to share workflows between Servers and Sites. You can create an Event Rule to back the files up periodically by creating a task using the Copy File Action. Or, you can create a .zip file of all of the .aml files.
To backup workflows
Define a Timer Rule. Specify the frequency depending on how often you create new tasks.
Add the Copy/Move (push) file to host Action to the Rule.
For the Source path, specify the location of the task (.aml) files. (Do NOT select the Delete source file check box!) The default location is C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\GlobalSCAPE\EFT Server Enterprise\AWE; On Windows 2008, Application Data files for all users are in a hidden folder named %systemroot%\ProgramData instead of under Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data.
For the Destination path, specify a location on a remote drive (in case the local drive fails).
Click Apply.
