Configuring Backups 25
Step 7: Create Rules Watch Important Backup Files (Optional)
File watch rules are used to monitor and send email alerts when specified files have not been changed
often enough or appear smaller than expected. For example, an administrator could choose to receive
an alert if third-party backup software fails to process dump files or if the dump files appear to be of
insufficient size. Use the
BACKUP > Watched Files page to add files to watch on a particular backup
server.
The
ADMIN > Email Notifications page allows you to specify the email addresses that is to receive an
email notification when files matching the parameters in a file watch rule are detected. The emails are
sent to those users who are configured to receive alerts.
Step 8: Check Backup Reports
The BACKUP > Reports page contains detailed reports.
