Full appliance configuration backups
Help | V-Series Appliance | Version 8.0.x
A full appliance configuration backup saves all appliance settings, as well as saving configuration and policy data for all active modules (TRITON AP-WEB, TRITON AP-EMAIL, or both) on the appliance. If you have multiple appliances, run backups on each one. The backup file includes data for only the appliance on which it is created.
* 
Note 
If you have Websense software components installed off the appliance—like Log Server or the TRITON Manager—Websense recommends that you run the Backup Utility on those machines at approximately the same time that you back up your appliance. When you restore the system, this allows you to restore from a time-compatible set of backups on all machines.
Full appliance configuration backup files for TRITON AP-WEB appliances include:
*
All configuration files for the appliance on which the backup is run, including configuration files for the V-Series manager
*
A snapshot, including all configuration data, of Content Gateway
*
All configuration settings for TRITON AP-WEB including:
*
Global configuration information, stored in the Policy Database (if Policy Broker is running on the selected appliance)
*
Local configuration information, such as Filtering Service and Log Server settings, stored in the config.xml file (if Policy Server is running on the selected appliance)
*
Websense component initialization (.ini) and configuration (.cfg) files
Full appliance configuration backup files for TRITON AP-EMAIL appliances include:
*
All configuration files for the appliance on which the backup is run, including configuration files for the V-Series manager
*
Policy and configuration data for TRITON AP-EMAIL
For appliances running in Web and Email mode, both sets of information are included in backup files.
