CHAPTER 10 Backup and Restoration
1
This chapter describes the importance of backing up data, backup methods, and
restoration methods.
10.1
Importance of Backing Up Data
PRIMEQUEST uses components and hardware with high reliability and duplicates
many units to maintain high reliability. To be prepared for failure occurrences,
however, be sure to back up data periodically.
If a system is damaged due to some problem, or if data on a server is deleted by an
operator error and the like, the data on the PRIMEQUEST system needs to have been
backed up to recover the data in the server to its previous status.
As long as data is backed up, if data in a hard disk drive is damaged due to a hardware
failure, an operator error, and the like, the user can restore the backup data and
recover normal system operation. If the data is not backed up, it will be lost.
Be sure to back up data periodically to operate a system with confidence.
