This article explains how to perform the initial backup to a removable drive on the customer site. Then transport the removable drive to the data center and copy the data directly onto the AhsayCBS / Predefined destination, bypassing the Internet.
This procedure is highly recommended for the backup set with large data sizes and or networks with slow connection speeds.
Although the instruction is described for AhsayCBS / Predefined destination, the same steps can also be performed for other backup destinations like FTP, SFTP, and Cloud Storage destinations.
Note: This process is called "Seed Load" in version 6. Click Here for instruction on Windows.
Refer to the following steps for details:
1. First, configure the backup set to perform the initial backup to a local destination (e.g. the removable hard drive).
