Create and edit backup profiles through the Address Manager Administration Console.

1. Log in to the Address Manager Administration Console.

3. If you are creating a new backup profile, type add <backup profile name> and press ENTER.
4. Type modify <backup profile name>
5. Type set schedule <weekday|everyday|none> <time> and press ENTER.
   • The weekday parameter specifies the day of the week on which to run the backup. Type any one of these values: everyday, monday, tuesday, wednesday, thursday, friday, saturday or sunday. Or, type none if you only want to create backups on demand with the execute backup command.
   • If you set the schedule to none, you do not need to specify a time value.
   • The time parameter accepts values in the twenty-four hour clock format. For example, the value 200 indicates 2:00 AM, while the value 1400 indicates 2:00 PM.
6. Type set keep-files <2-20> and press ENTER.
7. Type set file-prefix <prefix> and press ENTER. The prefix must contain up to 10 alphanumeric characters, without spaces.
8. Type set save-local <yes|no> and press ENTER. When you set save-local to yes, backup files are saved on the local server in the /data/backup directory. When you set save-local to no, backup files aren't saved on the local server. A backup schedule can save files both locally and remotely.
9. Type set save-remote <yes|no> and press ENTER. When you set save-remote to yes, backup files are saved at a remote location that you can specify. When you set save-remote to no, backup files aren't saved to a remote location. A backup schedule can save files both locally and remotely.

    Note: Currently, there is a limitation that the labels of the hostname can't contain only numbers. For example, 1.example.org isn't an accepted hostname; however, 1host.example.org is an accepted hostname.
11. If configuring a remote backup, you must set the remote directory. Type set remote-dir <directoryPath> and press ENTER. For directoryPath, type the directory or directory path in which you want to save the backup files on the remote host. The directory path may contain up to 1024 characters without spaces.
12. If configuring a remote backup, you must set the remote username. Type set remote-user <username> and press ENTER. For username, type the username used to log in to the remote host. The username may contain up to 64 characters without spaces.
13. If configuring a remote backup, you must set the remote user password. Type set remote-password and press ENTER. You are prompted to enter a password.
    At the password prompt, type the password to the remote host and press ENTER. The password may contain up to 64 alphanumeric and special characters without spaces. You can't use any of the following characters in the password: ~ ; > $ < > ‘’ \ / “” & , : ^ [ ] ( ).

    Note: If reviewing your changes before saving (show), you will not be able to see the remote the remote password set, even if you have configured one.
