====== Backing Up ======

File backups will normally run on a set schedule. To perform a backup manually:

  - Click the **Backups** tab on the main dashboard panel.
  - Click **Host Summary** under the "Server" menu on the left.
  - Under the hosts table, click the **name of the host** you wish to manage.
  - You are now in the "Host Backup Summary" page.
  - Under "User Actions" there are 3 buttons: **Start Incr Backup**, **Start Full Backup**, **Stop/Dequeue Backup**.

====Incremental Backup====

An incremental backup only backs up new files and files that have changed since the last backup of any kind. This is a faster, more efficient process because it ignores files that are already backed up or haven't changed. You can perform an incremental backup after making a change to a single document and it will be backed up along with the other files.

====Full Backup====

A full backup performs a backup of all specified files and folders regardless of whether they have changed since the last backup. This option transfers all data, and can be a lengthy process if there are many files or very large files. It is not often necessary to perform a full backup manually.
