Use the Back up now feature to configure and run a one-time backup in a few simple steps. The backup process will start immediately after you perform the required steps and click OK.
For a long-time backup strategy that includes schedules and conditions, timely deleting of backups or moving them to different locations, consider creating a backup plan.
There are no options to schedule backups and to set up retention rules.
Conversion of a disk-level backup to a virtual machine is not available as a part of the backup operation. You can convert the resulting backup afterwards.
After a backup task is configured, the software has 5 minutes to deploy the task to the specified machines. If all the attempts to deploy the task on a machine during that period fail, this machine will not be backed up.
If you run the same backup task again, it will back up only those machines that were backed up during the first run.
