The following table describes the labels in this screen.

 

Table 74   Protect  > Backup > Edit Job: Step 1 

Job Name

This field displays the name that uniquely identifies the backup. It is read-
only. 

Job Description

Type from 0 to 60 characters to further describe this backup.

Backup Type

This field displays what kind of backup is to be performed. It is read-only.

Source folder(s)/file(s)

Specify the path of the folders and files to back up.

Backup Target
Target path

These fields display where the backups are to be saved to.

Compression

Compression reduces the size of the file that you want to back up. Backup 
is then faster, but restoring may be slower, so if backup space is not a 
concern and recovery speed is, then turn off compression.

Encryption

You can have the NSA use a password to encrypt the backup files.
