Creating frequent service backups is critical. If anything happens to your Embassy, these backups are your only path to recovering your data.
|
||||
|
||||
.. warning:: Backups are encrypted using your Embassy master password. If you forget your password, you lose your backups.

Creating A Backup

||||
=================
|
||||
|
||||
To begin the backup process:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Enter a USB drive with sufficient capacity into a USB port on the device. The blue ports are USB 3.0. The black ports are USB 2.0.
|
||||
2. Navigate to the `Services` sub menu from the main dashboard menu.
|
||||
3. Select the service to be backed-up.
|
||||
4. Select the floppy disc icon next to the `Last Backup` menu item. If a backup was never completed, this should say "never".
