You can test the configuration of a backup in the Test tab. Perform this test after making any changes to the Location or Authorization configuration of the backup.
Open the Test tab as described in Enabling Scheduled Backups. The Test tab appears.
The Test tab contains the Enable test of scheduled backup configuration at: option. Type or select the time that you want to schedule a test run of the backups. By default, it is set to the current time plus 10 minutes. The 10 minutes gives you enough time to set up a one time test, close out all windows, log off, and then reboot the computer. Logging out and rebooting the computer is not required, but recommended to perform the most thorough test (see Enabling Scheduled Backups). This check box is automatically selected whenever you access this tab. (Prior to accessing this tab, the Scheduled Backup configuration test is not enabled.) Make sure the check box is selected to schedule to run the one-time test at the time shown. This one-time task is deleted after it runs.
If there is a problem scheduling the test when you click OK, an error message appears. You must remedy the situation before you can schedule a test.
