Backup Content

This tab allows you to select the data that should be backed up. Remember to press the Apply Changes button to store the project you are editing. If you do not want to store the project, press the Discard Changes button. Pressing the Start Backup button will use the values that are currently selected, but it will not store those values permanently. If you want to create a new backup project, press the New Project button.

The Schemata search box containing the magnifying-glass icon will set the filter to schemata (databases) that match the pattern you enter. For example, to display schemata that begin with m only, enter m or M. That filter works in a case-insensitive fashion.

Figure 12.1. Backup Content tab

Backup Content tab

In the left box of that tab, select the schemata that you want to back up. You can select more than one schema at a time by using the keyboard. Press the > button to add those schemata to the right box labeled Backup Content. To remove a schema from the backup project, select it in the right box and press the < button.

To only select particular tables within a schema, rather than backing up the complete schema, double-click the schema name in the right box. This will expand the schema, displaying its contained tables. Disable the checkboxes next to the tables that you do not want to back up. Note that this will have no effect if you have enabled the Backup selected Schemata completely checkbox in the General tab.
