Back-up
It is recommended that you have a regular back-up strategy. Your IT
department may already have a back-up strategy in place which is suitable for
the Internal Applications Server and its data.
The Windows 7 operating system has a Backup utility that you can use to
archive files and folders in case of a hard disk drive failure. See the Microsoft
Windows Help and Support Center for more information on this utility.
When performing back-ups, we recommend that you back-up the data to an
external storage device connected to your company’s internal network or one
of the Internal Applications Server’s USB connectors. Also, you should perform
back-ups at times when the Server PC is not being used for normal operations
as it may impact the Server PC’s overall performance.
System Restore
Windows 7 contains the capability to restore the system to a previous point in
time. System Restore is enabled with default settings as provided by Microsoft.
However, System Restore is not 100% successful. Therefore, it is not the
recommended method to back-up the instrument. System Restore has not
been tested to verify successful restoring. It is best to use the procedure
described in
“Disk Drive Recovery Process” on page 98
.
