Backup Operations

Use the Operations menu to submit your backups and data set operations manually. Just select the backup set you want to run.

Robot Save documents each save or restore operation in a status message. Each message contains information such as the name and rotation of the backup set, the time and date the backup set ran, the completion status of the save or restore, and whether there are additional messages. Robot Save notifies you of unsuccessful save or restore operations, and allows you to resume incomplete saves. You can display or print the status messages for any date you select.

This section describes how to submit your backups for execution. You’ll see how to submit a save manually, how to schedule a save in Robot Schedule, how to check the completion status of your save or restore operation, how to resume an incomplete save, and how to resolve errors that occur. This section also describes the Restricted State Utility (RSU), which allows you to run restricted state saves unattended. Note: You can run restricted state TCP/IP using the RSU.
