By default, Logger does not back up any content. However, you can configure it to back up the following content to a remote system:
You can back up this content on ad-hoc basis or schedule it to run periodically. The content is saved to the backup location in a single .tar.gz format file.
Caution: Ensure that Configuration Backups (for configuration settings) and Event Archives (for data) run on a regular basis and are stored in a remote location. You should also store a copy of your license. In the event of catastrophic failure, you will need to restore the most recent Configuration Backup, Event Archives, and license. For information on Event Archives, see Event Archives.
