Backup Now

Post by d.reinhold@web.de »

I would like to see a combobox "Once backup is taken, computer should: "Keep running", "Sleep", "Shutdown" at Backup Now (as shown in Configure Backup, Schedule).

Regards, Dirk

Hi Dirk,
You mean to prompt for a post job activity for a manual backup action, right?

I want my PC to automatically shutdown or sleep after Backup Now has finished.

+1 for this feature.

It would be really handy to have this feature, maybe like a dropdown or something alike, to shutdown after performing backup via "Backup now"-Button.
Of course it is good to ignore the post job action for backup-now, but it would be nice to be able to shut down the computer after performing backup-now-action.

Some of our customers don't have fixed closing times in their offices, so the planned-task-option isn't very useful for these situations.
Of course post job actions are a great, but in some cases they are not practical.

Thanks!

[MERGED] enhance on demand backup features

Post by hoffmp »

Hi all

REALLY like the Endpoint Backup product. One small suggestion for a feature enhancement. Can you extend the capabilities of the Backup Now button to include shutting the system down and putting it to sleep?

Thanks!

Hi, Phil. This was discussed before - and yes, this is planned for future releases. Thanks!
