Be sure to create backups periodically. The SMC supports two types of
backups, each for a specific set of circumstances:
• Backup of the system disk.
→
After scheduled maintenance or after relocation of SMC.
• Backup of the setup data of System Console Software.

After registering a user and/or changing setup information.
Restoration processes after disk faults or other critical events require recovery of the
system, and should be performed only by a certified service engineer.
