Backup
Manager
In
Backup
Manager
various
system
conditions,
so
‐
called
“snapshots”
can
be
saved.
This
means
that
you
can
make
your
system
settings
and
then
create
a
backup
version.
You
can
create
various
snapshots
with
different
settings
and
quickly
change
over
between
the
snapshots.
It
is
also
possible
to
“freeze”
a
system
condition
to
ensure
that
any
modifications
are
undone
at
the
next
system
start
and
the
settings
correspond
to
the
“frozen”
condition.
Starting
the
Backup
Manager
During
the
booting
process
and
after
displaying
the
bios
info
for
three
seconds,
the
list
for
selecting
the
Backup
Manager
appears.
Please
select
the
backup
manager
here.
Please
note
that
wireless
keyboards
or
mice
may
not
work
in
combination
with
the
Backup
Manager.
You’d
better
use
cable
‐
operated
input
equipment
connected
to
a
USB
port.
The
system
initially
comes
with
two
snapshots.
A
First
Child
which
cannot
be
edited
and
corresponds
to
the
factory
setting.
Derived
from
the
First
Child
is
the
Factory
Image,
which
is
the
first
editable
snapshot.
Creating
a
new
snapshot
Use
Create
New
Snapshot
to
create
a
new
snapshot.
The
new
snapshot
must
refer
to
an
existing
snapshot
which
can
be
selected
at
Parent
Snapshot.
Selecting
a
snapshot
By
selecting
the
Use
buttons,
you
can
choose
the
snapshot
to
be
used.
At
the
system
start
a
Boot
Manager
showing
the
selected
entry
and
the
Backup
Manager
are
displayed.
Should
you
have
selected
a
snapshot
with
child
snapshots
you
are
asked
whether
you
want
to
create
a
copy
of
the
selected
snapshot
or
whether
you
want
to
delete
all
child
snapshots.
Changing
the
snapshot
name
or
description
By
right
‐
clicking
the
snapshot
description
or
name
you
can
change
the
description
or
name.
Freezing
a
snapshot
(disallowing
modifications)
Snapshots
can
be
frozen
by
clicking
the
Freeze
checkbox.
This
means
that
any
modifications
in
the
frozen
snapshot
are
made
undone
at
a
restart.
During
a
media
server
restart
the
Backup
Manager
is
started
first
to
resume
the
frozen
condition
and
only
then
is
the
system
frozen
again.
To
quit
this
condition,
you
need
to
abort
the
restart
in
the
Backup
Manager
and
then
"defreeze"
the
snapshot
(by
unchecking
the
box
Freeze).
For
permanent
installation
this
Freeze
function
may
be
quite
useful
to
ensure
that
the
system
always
starts
with
the
same
settings.

a
snapshot

selecting
the
Lock
button,
you
can
lock
a
snapshot.

longer
be
selected
or
deleted.
The
snapshot
can
only
be
unlocked
again
by
clicking
the
Lock
button
and
entering
the
password.
A
locked
snapshot
can
be
recognized
by
the
red
button.
