Iomega Backup Instructions

Firstly, insert the CD supplied with the Iomega Zip drive. The following screen
should appear.

Close this screen, and then open windows explorer and go to the file shown
below. Open this file and then double click on the setup icon and fully install the
backup software. When finished, the setup program will ask you to reboot. Please
do so.
When the computer has restarted, the following screen will appear.
You should de-select the files shown above, then click the ‘Select target’ button.
Choose the zip drive as the target drive (the drive to which you want to save the
backup) and click OK.
Enter a new configuration name ‘Inovex Daily Backup’, then click on ‘Add files’.
This then gives you the option to select the files you wish to make a backup of.

Click on the ‘Add file(s)’ button and select the BE file relevant to the machine you
are working on. Below is shown using 5152_2004BE.
Click on open and the previous screen will re-appear with the backup object now
shown in the box. Click next and the following screen will then appear.

Click on next and the following screen will appear. Change the settings to those
shown and click next. Then click on finish to complete the task.
The following screen will then appear.

You should now click on the ‘create new’ button and go through the same routine
as before, but instead of just saving the BE file, you should save the entire job
folder to the C:\ drive of the computer. This is done by clicking the ‘Add folder(s)’
button instead of the ‘Add File(s)’ button as done before. Select the job folder and
click ok.

Click next and C:\Inovex Backup as the target. You may have to create the folder
before doing so.
Now set the scheduler to only backup once per week instead of every day as
before.

Click next and finish and the following screen should appear.
If you then click on either of the backup jobs, you can manually start a backup,
otherwise click ok and the backups will occur at the times set automatically.
