4. Backup Archives
By default, the console stores an archive of the show files for every quarter of an hour
of the day, and for every day of the week. This enables the user to revert to a previous
copy of their show.
Archive files are only made when the console auto saves – so if auto saves are
disabled then no archive files will be generated. If the console is set to “auto save on
changes” then archive files will only be stored when changes are made. To revert to
an archived file press SHIFT and LOAD SHOW in the Setup Window.
Archive files are stored in a special directory that should not be modified by the user.
When the user re-loads an archived backup file, the backup file is restored into the
standard show directory.
Archive files have the name “backup0530.sbk” to indicate the show file that was
recorded just before 5.30am. Daily files are also stored – “backupfri.sbk” indicates the
show file that was recorded at the start of Friday. Archive files are overwritten every 24
hours, except for the daily files, which are overwritten every 7 days.
