Creating new jobs by copying
Creating a new job by copying an existing job is sometimes a useful method of creating a job. In
particular, copying an existing job is appropriate when you want your new job to be like the old job in
every way except for a few minor changes.
To Create a New Job by Copying an Existing Job
1. Copy the existing job you wish to duplicate in one of these ways:
•
Press the
CTRL
key as you drag the existing job to a new location, then skip to step 4 below
•
Select the existing job (with the mouse or keyboard) and press
CTRL
+
C
•
Right-click the existing job and selecting Copy from the shortcut menu
•
Select Copy from the Edit menu.
2. Open the folder you want the new job to be stored in by selecting it in the tree view area. (To store the
job in the same folder as the existing job, skip this step.)
3. Right-click the folder where you want the new job to be pasted and select Paste from the shortcut
menu. Alternatively, highlight the location where you want the job pasted; then select Paste from the
Edit menu or press
CTRL
+
V
.
4. Change the name of the new job.
NOTE: Data Protector Express copies all job properties, including job logs, to the new job.
Renaming, deleting, copying and moving jobs
You can change the names of jobs or move them to new folders. Or, if you do not plan to use a job again
in the future, you can delete it.
You rename, delete, copy and move jobs in one of these ways:
•
Select the appropriate command from the Edit menu
•
Right-click the job and selecting the appropriate command from the shortcut menu.
