Edit Backup Configuration

Use the Edit Backup Configuration page to change the options of an existing backup configuration.

The Edit Backup Configuration page contains the following options:

Configuration Name

The name of the configuration. This option is not editable.

Schedule Name

The name of the schedule that specifies when backups are to occur, provided that Automatic Backup is enabled.

Automatic Backup

Controls whether automatic backups are enabled for the configuration. When enabled, backups are automatically performed according to the specified schedule.

Directory

A custom directory where backups generated by the configuration are stored. If no custom directory is specified, backups are stored in the domain-dir/backups/backup-config-name directory. If a custom directory is specified, GlassFish Server appends the subpath domain-name/backup-config-name to the specified directory.

Recycle Limit

The number of previous backup files that are retained before the oldest one is deleted in order to save a new backup.

Live Backup

Controls whether backups are performed without suspending the domain. When disabled, the domain is suspended before the backup operation and resumed after the backup operation completes. This suspension guarantees that the content of the domain directory does not change during the backup operation.

Backup Type

Controls whether the entire domain directory (the Full choice) or just the config subdirectory of the domain directory (the Configuration Only choice) is backed up.
