Overview

SEP sesam enables you to specify additional (advanced) backup and restore options which are applicable for different task types, e.g., VMware vSphere, MySQL, etc. You can set additional backup or restore options in their properties or when creating a new backup/restore task. Note that you can also set additional restore options in the backup dialog.

Setting advanced options

You can specify additional backup or restore options, from the Main Selection -> Tasks by Clients -> New Backup Task or double-click the relevant backup task to open its properties. Under the Options tab -> Additional call arguments -> Backup options (previously Save options) or Restore options field, add the relevant backup or restore option.

You can also specify additonal restore options in the fourth step of the restore wizard (Target Settings), under the Expert Options -> Options tab. For details, see Standard Restore Procedure.

Information sign.png Note
As of v. 4.4.3. Beefalo, the Expert Options button for specifying more advanced restore options is only available in the Advanced and Expert UI mode. It is not available for users that run the GUI in Basic mode. In the latter case, to set additional restore options you first have to change the Basic UI mode to Advanced or Expert, as described in UI Mode.
