Bp Event data backup protects your data from loss in the event of a malfunction, regardless of whether you are working with a Bp Event Standalone (single workstation) or a Bp Event Server installation.
The data backup is configured once and then performed automatically at regular intervals. A logbook is written in addition to the data backup. It continuously records all database operations between two backup runs, thus ensuring complete data security.
In case of a malfunction (e.g. power failure) that damages your database, it will be restored fully automatically. The last data backup is restored and the contents of the logbook are integrated. Within a very short time, you can put your application back into operation with the current data status.
Important: The responsiblity for backing up your data lies with you. Please check regularly that the backup has been carried out correctly.
Configuration of the Bp Event data backup
Important: Save an additional copy of your backup files on a physically different medium (additional hard drive, USB stick, etc.) Otherwise the data backup could also be lost in the event of a hardware defect. Make sure there is sufficient storage capacity on that medium.
Do not back up your data directly to the network drive, as there is a high risk of interrupted network connections. If you still want to save your backup files externally, first run the Bp Event backup locally and then copy this data to an external medium.
