Types of archives

You can archive your data by running on-demand archive jobs or creating archive schedules. The on-demand option enables you to run one-time archive jobs whenever you want to archive backups. Creating schedules automates the archiving process and frees you from having to run a one-time job each time you want to archive a backup. For instructions on running archives, see Executing archive jobs.
