3. Guides, Tutorials, and FAQs

3.1. Backup Tutorial and FAQ

3.1.1. Introduction

Just imagine if someone asked you if you knew of a backup system that could beconfigured such that it each Sunday, for example, would make a full backup ofimportant documents, and all other days of the week only would backup files whichwere new or changed. Suppose also that in order to ensure maximal safety, each

backup should be stored remotely on a secure site, embedded firmly in the absolutelyrock solid Swedish bedrock; in fact, stored on a server so secure that communication



45/55


with the outside world only were to be allowed on channels utilizing no less that 2048bit encryption. Finally suppose that all files in each and every backup could beaccessed from any Windows computer anywhere in world with a connection to theInternet.

Now you might think, bearing in mind any regular backup products you might haveused, that if such a backup system existed, surely setting it up and configuring it mightrequire at least a PhD in Computer Science. However, in the following you will seethat:

Not only does Diino Backup meet all of the requirements above - but also

configuration and usage are as easy as 1-2-3!

3.1.2. Illustrated Tutorial

The goal of this tutorial will be to create a backup job that will backup all yourimportant files on regular intervals. Specifically we want to make a full backup of theselected files every Sunday and Wednesday, and all other days we only want tobackup files that are new or have changed since the last backup. All steps in thetutorial should be self explanatory for any user familiar with Windows computers.

3.1.2.1. Step 1 Start Diino Backup and Create a New Backup Job

The first time you start Diino Backup there are no backup jobs defined, so your screen

will look something like this

Image 1 Diino Backup, first run

Simply click the New Button to create a new Job.



46/55


3.1.2.2. Step 2 Define what the backup job should do

After clicking the New Button the last step the following window will appear

Image 2 A Blank New Backup Job

Backup Name

The first thing we will need to do is to give the backup a meaningful name.

Type in a Backup Name.

(I chose My First Backup as Backup Name.)

Folders to Backup



47/55


Now we need to add the folders we want to backup. One can either drag-and-drop thefolders one wishes to backup or click the AddButton.

Add some folder, either by clicking the Add Button, or by dragging anddropping folders onto the Folder List.

(I chose to click the button as it brings up a menu list of common folders that onemight want to backup.)

Image 3 Clicking Add Brings up a List of Common Folders to Backup

(I added two folders, My Documents and Favourites.)

Account to store backup on

Type in your Diino Username and your Diino Password, and click the StorePassword Checkbox. We need to store the password since we want the backup to beautomatic. You can also click the Check Account Button, which simply tries to loginwith the supplied username and password (and then logs out again).

Scheduling

Now, remember that we wanted to make a full backup every Sunday and Wednesday,

and all other days we only want to backup new of changed files.

Select Weekly / Daily and Click the Settings Button.

Now the following window will appear



48/55


Image 4 Weekly / Daily Schedule

Simply make the required changes. (Uncheck Wednesday under Incremental

Backup and checkWednesday for Full backup.) You might also want to change the time at which backups should run.

Click the OK Button.

Advanced Options

You can select if you want to backup files that are hidden. Also, you might want toclose Outlook before backup jobs are started, if so just check the correspondingcheckbox.

In conclusion

After filling in the details in this step your Window should look something like this



49/55


Image 5 Backup Job before saving

If everything looks fine, then press the Save Button.

After saving, you will get back to the Jobs View.

Now your newly created job should be visible, and your screen should look somethinglike this



50/55


Image 6 Backup jobs view after saving your first job

Now you can either run the backup manually by clicking the Run Button, or exit theprogram. For demonstrative purposes:

Click the Run Button. This will create an unscheduled full backup.

A progress dialog will now pop up displaying what is going on during each stage ofperforming a backup job.

Image 7 Progress dialog when performing a manual backup

As you can tell by the screen shot, unscheduled backups are independent of scheduledones. This means that you safely can remove old unscheduled backups from yourDiino account, without interfering with your backup schedule.

3.1.2.3. Step 3 Access your backed up data from your Diino Client

Start Diino as you normally would and enter the My Backups folder.



51/55


In this folder there should now be a new folder corresponding to the Manualbackup that was performed in step 2. In my case I have a My First Backupfolder.

Enter the folder corresponding to the unscheduled backup that was performedin step 2.

Here you will now find a file containing the backed up files. In my case:

Image8 Accessing backed up files from Diino

Double click on the Backup File.

After a while, depending on the size of the backup, Windows will automaticallydisplay the contents of your backup.

3.1.3. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) for Backup

Q: Does Diino or Diino backup have to be running when I have scheduled somebackups?A: No, the Windows Scheduler, which is always running, keeps track of when to startthe backup jobs.

Q: How can I schedule intervals longer than one week, or shorter than one day?



52/55


A: In the Edit Backup Job Window, under Scheduling, select Advanced and clickSettings. The Windows Scheduler will be displayed containing a list of tasks.Among them there should be two tasks corresponding to the job you are editing. Nowclick one of them to set the interval you want. You need to edit both the incremental

and the full task since they arent dependant on each other.

Q: What method is used to determine what files to include in incremental backups?A: A file is included if its new or changed. (That is, the file date of a file is newerthan the time of the last backup.)

Q: What format is used for backups?A: The regular zip format for sizes less than 4 GB, and zip64 for larger files.

Q: How much data is sent for incremental backups?A: It depends on how many files have changed since your last backup. In any case,since backups are stored in zip files, the smallest addition to an incremental backup isa complete file.

Q: Can I backup files from another computer without mapping a share to a driveletter?A: Yes, simply browse to the share you want to backup. Or type in the namemanually, say \\SERVER\c$\Folder

Q: Can I add folders from more than one drive or computer in one backup?A: Yes, in all backups the root contains the drive or computer you have backed up

from. If you have added three folders: C:\MyPhotos, D:\Important Documents, and\\SERVER\c$\Folder the structure of your zip archive will look like this:

The Backup (Zip-File)

C

MyPhotos

D

Important Documents

SERVER

C

Folder

Q: I have another backup program installed; do I need to uninstall it before usingDiino Backup?A: In general there would be no need for that. What we can say is that Diino backup isdesigned to play along nicely with other backup programs, but we cannot, of course,guarantee that the converse is true.
