sys.backup

Backup takes place in the evening, after 10 pm, and the data is kept (Retention Period) for two months. Once a month, a full backup is done, once a week differential backup is done, while incremental backup is done on a daily basis.

By activating the service, e-mails are received on a daily basis about Backup Jobs. This option is enabled after the installation. If a user wishes to turn off this option or wants to receive notifications from another e-mail address, other than the one mentioned in the package installation, CARNET should be contacted by sending an e-mail to sysbackup@carnet.hr.

1. 100 Mbps or faster connection to CARNET
