When the first infrastructure backup is run, an EIPBackup directory is created to contain the date-stamped folders for each set of backup files. By default, this directory is created in C:\. You can change this location, and also define how many old backups are kept in the backup directory.
To change the settings for the backup files:
1.
On the Forcepoint management server, navigate to the directory C:\Program Files (X86)\Websense\EIP Infra.
2.
Open EIPBackup.xml in a text editor such as Notepad.
This file contains the following parameters:
 
3.
4.
<PATH>//server01/backups</PATH>
If you do this, you may also need to enter credentials for access to the remote machine in the <USER_NAME> or <DOMAIN>, and <PASSWORD> parameters. This is not recommended as the password is stored as plain text and could be accessed by other users. Instead, store the backups in a location to which you have write access without needing credentials.
