# BackupBeforeUpgrade

By default, the Category component backs up the category data at startup before it runs certain upgrades. Set `BackupBeforeUpgrade` to `False` before you upgrade if you do not want to run a backup.

Depending on the number of categories, snapshots, and clusters on your system, the backup process can be slow.

Type: | Boolean
Default: | True
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | Category
Example: | `BackupBeforeUpgrade=True`
