About Cold Backup(Offline Backup)

• A cold backup, also called an offline backup, is a database backup when the database is offline and thus not accessible for updating.

• This is the safest way to back up because it avoids the risk of copying data that may be in the process of being updated.

• However, a cold backup involves downtime because users cannot use the database while it is being backed up.

Setting Storage Location

From the Storage pane, you can select where Déjà Dup store your backups.The USB option can back up your data to an external drive or other local storage device.

Putting the backup on the same drive as the original files is a bad idea — you’ll lose both the backup and the originals if the drive fails.

You’ll be prompted to password-protect your backup but you can’t recover it if you forget it.I recommend Allow restoring without a password.

The backup process may take some time, but each subsequent backup will be faster. Déjà Dup performs incremental backups, which means that it only records the changes from the last backup.
