Copy backup files to a storage location
Copying backup files to a storage location ensures that the backup files are available if the data on the server on which they were created is lost.
When you create backup files, you can save the files on the Management Server or on your local workstation. We recommend copying the backup files to a safe location, such as removable media or another host, for long-term storage.
When you save backup files on the Management Server, the backup files are saved in the <installation directory>/backups/ directory of the Management Server on which they were created.
Note: If you installed the Management Server in the C:\Program Files\Forcepoint\SDWAN Manager directory in Windows, some program data might be stored in the
C:\ProgramData\Forcepoint\SDWAN Manager directory.
On the Appliance, backup files can be automatically stored in a remote location through a CIFS share.
Steps
On the Management Server on which the backup files were created or on your local workstation, copy the backup files to a safe storage location.
Note: Handle the backup files securely. They contain all configuration information for the system.
