[V7][V8] FAQ: AhsayCBS Auto Save

Reviewed: 2021-12-17

Product Version:
AhsayCBS: 7.x, 8.x
OS: Windows, Linux, AhsayUBS

When this feature is enabled and with valid maintenance, CBS will automatically save its configuration settings, daily at 6:00AM, to the Ahsay License Server, a maximum of 30 snapshots will be created and saved. This will allow you to recover your CBS settings in the future when needed.

The benefit is that if your AhsayCBS Server suffers a problem (disaster, corrupted configuration setting, etc), you can restore from recent copies of your configuration, and get back to running.

You may refer to the AhsayCBS Administrator's Guide for further details.

Notes

Auto Save will not work with Evaluation license. This feature is an added benefit with valid maintenance.
Auto Save is triggered on CBS by a daily routine at 6 AM local time.
The maximum size of a snapshot uploading to ALS server is 50MB. This can be exceeded if you have many branded Sub Admins. If this is exceeded, no upload will be made (and no future Restore possible) ; the following error will be logged in CBS Activities Log
