To avoid this situation, the archive should always be stored on a separate hard disk.

How do I set up a backup on the server?
How do I choose the disk to which the archive should be saved?


In order for the backup to be available on your server, you need to download it. To do this, go to Server Manager -> Add roles & features

After logging in, you will be asked to choose which version to install for remote access or not. Select the usual installation and proceed to the selection of the server on which we will install everything related. (You can just click Next)

Now we are offered to choose server roles, for example, allow remote access, etc.

There are various items here country email list and some of them will require setting additional parameters.
The next item we have server features and here we will be asked to choose different settings for the server. This is where we will download the backup package.

We need to find Windows Server Backup in the list and tick the box so that it is downloaded. There are also other useful functions that can be useful in the work.

Next, confirm the download by clicking Install and wait for the download to finish.

After the download is completed, it is best for us to reboot the system so that the changes take effect. Next, we will configure the archiving itself.

After restarting the server, go to Server Manager -> tools -> Windows Server Backup

Here you can observe the following parameters:


Local Backup
Last backup status - The status of the last Backup
Next backup time - Scheduled Backup
Number of available backups - Number of available Backups.
