Before you proceed, make sure that you set the time zone for your gateprotect Firewall
as described under "Settings" on page 45. Otherwise, the backups are created
according to Etc/UTC instead of the time specified by you in the backup profiles.
In a High Availability configuration, backups that were created on the master system
are displayed on the standby (slave) system as well.
Backup Profiles Overview
Navigate to "Firewall > Backup > Profiles" to display the list of backup profiles that are
currently defined on the system in the item list bar.
In the expanded view, the left column of the table displays the "Name" of an existing
backup profile. Furthermore, the "Status" of the backup profile and its backup "Interval"
are displayed. The buttons in the last column allow you to view and adjust the settings
of an existing backup profile, create a new profile based on a copy of an existing
backup profile, or delete a profile from the system.
For further information, see Chapter 3.2, "Icons and Buttons", on page 21.
Backup Profiles Settings
Under "Firewall > Backup > Profiles" , you can add a new or edit an existing backup
profile.
The "Backup" settings allow you to configure the following elements:
Field Description
"On" / "Off" A slider switch indicates whether the backup profile is active ( "On" ) or inactive
( "Off" ). By clicking the slider switch, you can toggle the state of the profile. A
new backup profile is enabled by default.
"Name" Enter a unique name to identify the backup profile in the item list bar.
"Time" Enter the time (in the 24-hour HH:MM format) when the database should be
backed up automatically. The default time is set to 02:00.
"Interval" Select the desired interval for the creation of backups from the drop-down list.
The option is set to Week by default, but you can adjust the settings to one of
the other values as necessary (see below).
"Day of Week/Day of
Month"
If you selected the interval:
●
DAY, you do not have to specify the day any further.
●
Week, specify the day of the week on which the backup should be created.
The default value is set to Sunday.
●
Month, specify the day of the month (as a date) on which the backup
should be created.
"Filename base path" Enter a base filename for the backup files. The name has to be unique and
must consist of at least 3 characters (allowed are letters of the English alpha-
bet, integers, dashes, underscores and dots). The date and the YML.ZIP file
extension are automatically added to the filename.
"Store Locally" This checkbox is pre-selected by default. Clear the checkbox to disable the
local storage of backups created with this profile.
