We have Struxureware Data Centre Expert 7.8.1 and original setup as backup but it doesn't work
To add context system has no remote access so we are unable to setup for backups to go to Remote Backup Server (We have another DCE that does this)
We have upgrade project happening next month so need backup of the server as well being able to run weekly backups to the server
(1) How to config the backup to go locally to itself
(2) How to we access the area where kept so we purge when needed
(3) How can export out to USB

Hi @nicholas.r ,
Sorry but a local backup is not an option. The only option on a DCE server is to back up over the network. A windows or NFS share would need to be connected to the network. If you have a hardware server or have created a VM with a secondary LAN connection, you can use either the public or private LAN for the backup.
Thanks,
Steve
