Backup Status

The box makes an incremental backup each night. By default the backup is stored on the machine itself, but you can also have it stored on Amazon S3.

Configuration

Backups are stored on this machine’s own hard disk. You are responsible for periodically using SFTP (FTP over SSH) to copy the backup files from to a safe location. These files are encrypted, so they are safe to store anywhere.

Separately copy the encryption password from to a safe and secure location. You will need this file to decrypt backup files.

Backups are stored in an Amazon Web Services S3 bucket. You must have an AWS account already.

You MUST manually copy the encryption password from to a safe and secure location. You will need this file to decrypt backup files. It is NOT stored in your Amazon S3 bucket.

This is the minimum number of days backup data is kept for. The box makes an incremental backup, so backup data is often kept much longer. An incremental backup file that is less than this number of days old requires that all previous increments back to the most recent full backup, plus that full backup, remain available.
