To launch an immediate backup, select 1-Time Backup. This will present you with the option to select a pre-existing profile or create a temporary profile to execute. If you choose not to use a pre-existing profile you may reference the iSeries Profile section to aid you in creating your temporary profile. You may now initiate your backup.
Multiple backups can be initiated by changing the Threading option from the iSeries Agent menu in the Administrator Interface with Settings > System, Updates, and Licensing > General Configuration > iSeriesAgent.
