Z-DBackup creates a log file for each backup set to log its backup and restore actions. The files are created in the "Log files" subdirectory in the program directory.
 


 

The log files enable you to monitor the success of scheduled backups (with the Windows Task Scheduler of Z-Cron).

 If the protocol file grows larger that a certain threshold value (default setting is 64 KB – approx. 20 backups), it is automatically deleted prior to the next backup. This setting can be changed in the program settings .

Help

If you access a remote computer with TeamViewer or Remote-Desktop (RDP) that has Z-DBackup installed and want to save a logfile of a backup-set on your local computer, you can do so by copying the logfile to clipboard (button ) on the remote computer and paste it into a text file on your local machine.

 Please regularly check that your backups are working and complete!
