precautionary measure, it is recommended that periodic backups be taken of the

data.

If the data on the server is backed up, it can be restored from the backup data in the event of data

corruption in hard disk units due to hardware failures or operational errors. If backups are not made,

restoration is impossible and your important data will be lost permanently. For anxiety-free system

operation, be sure to perform periodic backups of the system.
