Field	Description
Path	Enter a path name where you want the backup stored. This is the root folder where the backup files are written. If you enter a local path, it is local to the TRITON management server. Each backup process creates a new sub-folder inside that root folder. The name of each sub-folder is the timestamp when it was created.
Credentials (optional)
If the TRITON AP-DATA administrator doesn't have write privileges to the specified path, use these fields to specify the credentials to use for writing backups.
Domain	Enter the domain name of the remote backup location.
User name	Enter the user name for an administrator who has access to this path.

Field	Description
How many backup copies do you want to keep?	Every time you backup the system, the system uses another backup folder. To avoid using too many disk resources, indicate how many backup folders you want to keep. The system will rotate between these folders on subsequent backups. It overwrites the oldest folder with the new data. You can have between 1 and 60 backup folders. The default is 5.
Include forensics	Select this option if you want to include incident forensics in the backup. These are the details stored in the incident database.
Do not include forensics	Select this option if you do not want to include incident forensics in the backup. The incident database can be quite large, and backing it up requires additional disk space.

Note  The backup process consists of large transactions and you cannot stop a transaction in the middle. You must wait until the process is complete.
