2 Introduction

This chapter contains information on the function of the archive, backup, and restore. »IPCBackup & Restore« requires the Microsoft Windows® XP operating system.

2.1 Functions

The »IPC Backup & Restore« software provides the following basic functions:

1. Creation and management of archives Archive ( 25),

2. Creation of backups Backup with USB stick ( 27),

3. Update of the runtime software Update ( 31).

For archives and backups, different storage media are used. Information on the differencesbetween archives and backups and the storage media to be selected can be found in thefollowing chapters:

What is an archive? ( 12)

What is a backup? ( 12)

What is a restore? ( 12)

2.1.1 Using Compact Flash cards

Compact Flash cards of swissbit® are available in different versions.

»IPC Backup & Restore« only supports the "Fixed Disk (non removable)" version with ultra direct memory access (UDMA) which

– is used in the industrial PC as bootable memory medium,

– can be partitioned and formatted like a hard disk.

Note!

For an error-free backup and restore of data in the »IPC Backup & Restore« only Compact Flash cards of the company swissbit®, variant "Fixed Disk(non removable) with ultra direct memory access (UDMA)" are approved!

Functions

Information on different Compact Flash(CF) versions

2.1.2 Structure of the »IPC Backup & Restore«

»IPC Backup & Restore« is composed of two components:

»IPC Backup & Restore« on the engineering PC under Windows® XP,

»IPC Backup & Restore« on the IPC under Windows® CE.

The contents of this documentation refer to the use of the »IPC Backup & Restore« on theengineering PC.

Further information on the use of the »IPC Backup & Restore« under Windows® CE can be found in the documentation for the industrial PC in the section »IPC Backup & Restore«.

Version Function

Fixed Disk(non removable) • The CF card can be used like a hard disk. • Partitioning and formatting is possible.

Removable Disk • The CF card can be formatted, but partitioning is not possible.

Ultra direct memory access (UDMA) Ultra direct memory access • provides direct and quicker data access to the contents of the CF card. • can only be used if the hardware supports ultra direct memory access.

Control technology | IPC Backup & RestoreIntroductionDifferences between archive, backup, and restore

12 L 1.6 EN - 01/2011

2.2 Differences between archive, backup, and restore

2.2.1 What is an archive?

The term Archive describes the contents of a CF card. The archive is created underWindows® XP by the CF card.

The CF card

contains the complete "memory" of the industrial PC,

contains all permanently saved pieces of information of the IPC components such as

– the operating system,

– software,

– data.

For the industrial PC, the CF card is what the hard disk is for the engineering PC. There, all data required for operation are stored.

Using an archive

2.2.2 What is a backup?

A backup is created under Windows® CE.

With a backup, individual IPC components are copied from the CF card to a USB stick.

Using a backup ( 14)

2.2.3 What is a restore?

Restore describes the process of restoring backup data from a USB stick on the CF card.

"Restore" is for instance used to

– transfer individual components from one industrial PC to another IPC,

– restore data in the event of a defect.

Backups are restored under Windows® CE.

Using a restore ( 16)

Note!

The archive of a CF card is basically different from a backup of an industrial PC. The contents and the structure of archive and backup are different. This is why an archive can, for instance, not be replaced by a backup.

1.6 EN - 01/2011 L 13


Using an archive

2.3 Using an archive

You can restore the archive of a CF card on your engineering PC on a new CompactFlash card.

Tip!

How to carry out a backup or restore under Windows® CE on the industrial PC isdescribed in the chapter "Backup and Restore" of the software manual for theindustrial PC.

Archiving requires that the engineering PC is equipped with a card reader.

When archiving a CF card, the whole CF card contents will be backed up on your hard disk.

– The backed up archive can be restored on another CF card later.

– An industrial PC can be booted with a restored CF card. After inserting the CF card, the IPC can be started directly.

Using a backup ( 14)

2.3.1 Archiving a CF card

If all data bases of the CF card of an industrial PC are to be backed up on the engineeringPC, a card reader must be connected to the engineering PC.

For more information on archiving a CF card, please see:

Backup with USB stick ( 27)

Note!

Observe the differences between the storage media when restoring archives!

• A restore only restores configuration-dependent software components.

• During the restore, the whole contents of the Compact Flash card are restored.

Note!

For completely restoring a software version, the CF card must be archived. When the CF card is archived, all CF card data are backed up. Archiving therefore requires enough memory space on the CF card.

Control technology | IPC Backup & RestoreIntroductionUsing a backup

14 L 1.6 EN - 01/2011

2.4 Using a backup

Whereas CF card archives represent a complete data base, USB sticks are designed for thebackup of individual IPC components.An advantage of the use of backups is the automatic backup functionality when bootingup the industrial PC. Unlike CF card archiving, the USB stick is not to be removed from theindustrial PC.

The term "Backup" describes the following process:

When creating a backup using a USB stick as storage medium on your industrial PC, components are copied from your CF card to the USB stick.

The restore of a backup on your industrial PC is called "Restore". Backups stored on a USB stick can additionally be transferred from the USB stick to an engineering PC.

The contents of a backup can be configured: Backup with USB stick ( 27)

A backup may contain maximally four IPC components:

Operating system; boot loader

Lenze software

System configuration

Data

Note!

Risk of data loss!

When duplicating or restoring a CF card, the data carrier is formatted and made bootable. When a USB stick is selected, the USB stick is afterwards no longer suitable for being used on an industrial PC!

The storage medium selected in Backup & Restore must correspond to the storage medium physically available!

Using a backup

The more IPC components you select, the more memory space is required on your USBstick. When creating the first backup, all components should be selected. Data ( 29)

As soon as backups are created at regular intervals, we recommend only to backup the IPCcomponents that change. These are mainly data. Please read the section Backup withUSB stick ( 27) to see which data are backed up.

2.4.1 Backup with USB stick

If data of an industrial PC are to be backed up on a USB stick, the USB stick must beprepared using this software. When the USB stick is prepared, the »IPC Backup & Restore«on the industrial PC can automatically generate the required backup (depending on theconfiguration). Backups are provided with special names which contain information on theindustrial PC. The data which are considered by a backup is described under: Data ( 29)

[2-1] Backup - overview

Note!

A defect on a CF card can only be removed by restoring the archive on another CF card! When a USB stick is used, the system is always expected to be executable.

As a precaution, always create an archive from a CF card!

2.6 Summary of the functions

There is a basic difference between archiving a CF card and carrying out a backup with a USB stick:

– Archiving a CF card backs up all data sets of the CF card,

A Backup with a USB stick only backs up user data and the IPC components selected. Backups created with a USB stick are designed for the regular backup of user data!

2.6.1 CF card (archive)

Duplicate CF cards,

Archive all CF card data contents of an industrial PC on your hard disk,

Unarchive archives stored on your hard disk on CF cards.

Note!

• Restore with a USB stick only restores the IPC components previously selected,

• Restore the CF card restores all data bases of the CF card. Please observe the increased memory requirements!

Automatic behaviour when IPC is started with the connected USB stick

• No action When the USB stick is inserted, the industrial PC boots up normally without making a backup or restore.

• Display selection dialog (only for IPCs with display)

When the USB stick is inserted, the industrial PC provides a selection dialog via which the backup or restore can be selected.

• Record new backup When booting with the USB stick inserted, a backup is automatically written to the USB stick. This is especially sensible for systems without display.

• Restore selected backup (without question)

When booting with the USB stick inserted, a restore is automatically (without a selection dialog) written from the USB stick to the industrial PC. This is especially sensible for systems without display.

Tip!Leave the USB stick connected to the industrial PC to ensure that a backup is made every time the IPC boots up. Thus, the last data bases are always available.

Record backup

• Prefix Freely configurable addition for the backup name.Tip: Use a name which can be assigned clearly later.

• Max. no. of backups Maximum number of backups which may be saved on the USB stick during the automatic backup.

The maximum number in »IPC Backup & Restore« is 100! If the maximum number of backups is reached on the USB stick, the oldest backup will be overwritten.

This value is only evaluated if "Record new backup" is selected.Recommendation: 3
