Deleting a Database Backup Configuration

You can delete any database backup configuration for a computer. When you delete the configuration:

  • The backup configuration is removed from MyLiveVault.

  • Some historical versions of the files and directories previously backed up by that configuration are available for restore for some period of time. However, not all historical versions remain available for the entire retention period per the terms of the service.

  • If these files and directories are still selected on the computer's Files and Directories backup configuration, these files will now be backed up by that configuration. However, the Files and Directories configuration does not treat files as a group, so we will not guarantee the integrity of a database or application across its associated files. If integrity across specific files is necessary, you must have those files on a database backup configuration.

To delete a database backup configuration

  1. On the MyLiveVault Home page, the All Computers form lists all the computers on your company account. Click Backup/Restore in the Action column for the computer whose database backup configuration you want to delete.

  2. On the Computer Information form, click the Backup tab.

  3. In the Backup Configuration section, click Edit.

  4. On the Databases Backup form on the Change Configuration page, select the name of the configuration that you want to delete from the list of existing database configurations, then click Delete.

  5. When prompted to confirm the deletion request, click OK.

  6. Do one of the following:

    • If you are done deleting database backup configurations, click Done on the bottom of the Change Configuration page (not in a form).

    • To delete another database backup configuration, go to step 4 and repeat these steps for that configuration.
