Backup types

Direct copy

In this mode, DataArmour will copy the files from the source location(s) without any compression, directly to the destination location.  The Directory Tree option will effect how the backup is performed.   ZIP options are not available for direct copy backups.

ZIP Copy

Files from the source location(s) will be added, or updated, to a ZIP file at the destination location. The ZIP file will have the same name as the backup item, but with the extension .zip.  Directory Options and Replicate empty directories options are not available for ZIP copy backups.

ZIP files are readable with any ZIP viewer/extractor that adheres to the PKZIP 2.00 format.
