Scheduled Backups
allow you to specify a time in the future to perform a database
backup. The backup can either be one time or recurring.
To schedule a database backup, click the
Create tab and specify when and how often you want the backup to occur.
The following are the configuration options:
- backup directory specifies the directory to which you want the database backed up.
- backup type specifies the task type:
- minutely specifies how many minutes between each backup.
- hourly specifies how many hours and minutes between each backup.
- daily specifies how many days between each backup and the time of day (in 24:00 notation).
- weekly specifies how many weeks between each backup, check one or more days of the week, and the time of day (in 24:00 notation) for the task to start.
- monthly specifies how many months between each backup, select one day of the month (1-31), and the time of day (in 24:00 notation) for the task to start.

- backup period specifies how often the backup should run (every n months, weeks, days, hours or minutes).
- max backups specifies the maximum number of backups to keep. When you reach the specified maximum number of backups, the next backup will delete the oldest backup. Specify 0 to keep an unlimited number of backups.
