To learn how to back up memoQ server manually, see the Backup memoQ server topic. This topic is about scheduling regular backups. You can do it manually, or you can schedule the backups, so that memoQ server is backed up automatically and regularly.

Use task scheduler to make a backup of a file and rename it full#

Click Finish.From the Deployment tool, you can make a full backup of memoQ server.

This screen will show you the Task name, the schedule (Daily, Time) and the file that it will run. This will bring you back to the Start a Program screen where you can simply click Next. In the Start a Program screen, click the Browse button next to the Program/Script field and navigate to the ESCBACKUP folder that was created on your primary hard drive and select the backup file that was created there.Start a Program should already be selected, you may click Next. Note: If you run full server backups on a daily basis, you will want your ESC database backup to be performed before the server backup, so that the database backup is included with your server backup. Once you have selected a time, click Next. Your automatic backup task will run at this time every day.

Select a time you want your backups to run. In the Daily screen, your Start date will automatically be set to the current date.On the Triggers tab, select the Daily button.Designate the Name of the task as 'ESC Backup'. The first screen of the Create Basic Task Wizard will ask you to name the task.Under the Actions section, select the Create Basic Task option.You can do this by opening your Start menu or Start screen and typing 'Task Scheduler' and select that program when it appears.

Type in your database name, exactly the same as you noted in Step 1, and press Enter. Upon launching the file, you’ll be asked for the name of your database.If your browser does not display a Run option, you will need to save the file to your computer first and launch it from there. When prompted, select Run to launch this file. Now, you’ll need to download this file: BackupBatchMaker.bat located at the bottom of this screen.In the example, below, you’ll notice the name of the database is Sample. However, the following steps will take place on the server computer, so you want to tackle this step at the server computer. This may be done from the server or a workstation.

Log into your ESC database and then go to Help → About.

First, we need to obtain preliminary information.

So if you're not already on the server computer, you'll want to get there before proceeding. This process will need to be performed on the server computer, where backup files are generated. So, let’s talk about how to make this a reality.

Use task scheduler to make a backup of a file and rename it manual#

While creating a manual backup is a method to ensure you have a recovery option in the event of a catastrophic failure, what if you forget to keep up with that backup routine? Therefore, it’s a better practice to establish an automated task that will routinely backup your database.
