MSP360 S3 Backup is a powerful Windows program that automates backup and restore processes to Amazon S3 cloud storage.
In the newer release we are introducing an option to store the backup plan configuration in the cloud. This is useful in the recovery scenario when you want to get your backup plans configuration back after the failure. in the previous releases you had to re-create backup plans manually.
It is also now possible to export backup plan configuration and import it on other machines so that the backup plans are consistent across your organization.
Storing Backup Plans in the cloud
To store backup plans on S3 simply check the following option in the Backup Wizard
you can view saved backup plans in the Backup storagetab
You can also restore the previously saved Backup Plan:
In the open dialog select if you want to restore the program settings in addition to the backup plan configuration and optionally provide an encryption password.
Export and Import configuration locally
To export a Backup Plan go to File | Export Configuration
In the open Windows select which plans you would like to export. you can now copy the configuration file to another machine and restore it there.
To import a Backup Plan go to File | Import Configuration and select where the configuration file is located.
As always we would be happy to hear your feedback and you are welcome to post a comment.
Note: this post applies to MSP360 Backup 2.8 and later.
