The Database Backup menu enables you to back up your Trellix IPS data on-demand or by a set schedule. Regularly backing up your data (alerts, saved reports, logs) and configuration settings is strongly recommended to maintain the integrity of your system.
Note
Restoration of stored data must be performed using the standalone Database Admin tool. This tool is explained in this section.
The Database Backup menu and the standalone tool provide the following functions:
Backing up your Manager data— Save your data to your Manager server or a network server.
Automating a backup for your Manager— Set a frequency for backing up the Manager data.
Using the Database Admin Tool— Backup and restore via the standalone Database Admin tool.

Restoring Data Using the Database Admin Tool
Note
Before an All Tables or Audit Tables backup, it is recommended that you shut down the Manager. Therefore, Trellix recommends using the standalone Database Admin tool rather than your Manager for such backups.
Note
Data restore can only be performed using the standalone tool.
