FRX4000
Options on an FRX4000 are:
A
Back up the Current Database to a Remote FRX6000/FRM
B
Back up the Current Database to a Remote FRX4000
C
Restore the Backed-Up Database to a Remote FRX4000
D
Back up the Current Database to the Local Node
E
Restore the Backed-Up Database to the Local Node
Remote Backup and Restore (Items A–C)
Items A and B are used to back up a remote node’s database to a local FRX/FRM that
has control of the remote node. Both operations require first taking remote control (

Each FRX/FRM contains a directory called backup. When the backup is performed to
an FRX4000, the database will be copied automatically into backup. When backing

Local Backup and Restore (Items D, E)
Items D and E are used to back up a node’s database to a local backup directory, then
restore the database into the original directory. These operations can be performed on
a local or remote (via remote control) FRX4000, but in either case the operations
affect the node under operator control.
