BACKUP HELP

[GMAN62465]

I'm currently setting up a backup with archive config for files from my server to a network workstation with a USB External Hard Drive. I have ViseVersa installed to the network workstation with the external hard drive attached to it.

This is primarily for the "I deleted or messed up my speadsheet. Can I get a copy of it from last Tuesday?". I'm doing a Backup (Mirror Source to Target) and wanting to keep 15 days worth of daily history and will maintain some monthly ones as well. I want to keep the files with their original directory structure maintained and would like for the files to be saved in a newly created directory that will have the date so if I need to do a restore it will be apparent from which file that I need to restore from.

Possible naming format for the folders would be as follows

"Full Daily Backup - Monday 12-14-2007"
"Full Daily Backup - Tuesday 12-15-2007"
"Full Daily Backup - Wednesday 12-16-2007"

OR

"12-14-2007 Monday Full Daily Backup"
"12-15-2007 Tuesday Full Daily Backup"
"12-16-2007 Wednesday Full Daily Backup"

Can someone help with the scripting and settings that I would need to set up to properly do this.

I have purchased the latest version of ViceVersa and VV Scheduler.

Thanks so much in advance!

Sorry for late reply!

I think the best option is to activate File Archiving.
See http://www.tgrmn.com/web/kb/item22.htm
The file archiving options are under profile settings -> archiving

Please let us know if this setup suits your needs, thanks
