Data Backup and Restore
The Backup/Restore function enables the user to:
• Copy/Restore the patient archive.
• Copy/Restore the system configuration. The Copy/Restore
system configuration feature enables the user to configure
several units with identical presets, providing that the units
have the same software version.
To minimize accidental loss of data, perform backup of the
patient archive stored on the local hard drive at least once a
week.
There is no backup function for the images or reports (no
creation of a safety copy). For long-term storage, images and
reports should be moved to removable MOD or to a network
shared folder using the Disk management procedure (see
page 464).
The backup of the patient archive on the hard drive and the
system configuration is done from the configuration
management package as described on page 472.
WARNING
GE Medical Systems is not responsible for lost data if the
suggested backup procedures are not followed and will not aid
in the recovery of lost data.
CAUTION
DO NOT use the local hard drive for long-term image storage.
