Backup & Restore Settings

Backup and Restore settings can be configured by accessing the master configuration console. The admin/user may route to the console and can change the download settings, delete backups or create an entire console backup and may restore the same from there by following the steps mentioned previously for creating/restoring a backup.

The configuration consists of the tabs as shown in the figure below:

As seen in the figure, the admin may change the settings of backups that are created, which by default is set to be stored on cloud i.e., the Object Storage. The admin may change it to “Download” to allow users to download backups locally.

Along with this, the settings consist of functionality to delete the backups created. The admin may delete backups from the list fetched upon by clicking on browse button. Only a single backup can be selected and deleted at a time from the list. Upon successful deletion of backup, user may find a message as shown in figure below:
