Defining a drive-based backup
A drive-based backup takes a snapshot of your entire hard drive, capturing every
bit of information that is stored on it for later retrieval. All of your files, folders,
desktop settings, programs, and your operating system are captured into a recovery
point. You can then use that recovery point to restore individual files or folders
or your entire computer.
For optimum protection, you should define a drive-based backup and run it on a
regular basis.
By default, scheduled independent recovery points or recovery point set names
are appended with 001.v2i, 002.v2i, and so forth. Recovery point set names are
appended with _i001.iv2i, _i002.iv2i, and so forth. For example, if your base
recovery point is called C_Drive001.v2i, the first incremental recovery point is
called C_Drive001_i001.iv2i.
To define a drive-based backup
