Backup and Retention

Use the Backup and Retention settings to manage your Safeguard for Privileged Passwords backups and archive servers.

It is the responsibility of the Appliance Administrator to configure the Safeguard for Privileged Passwords backup and retention settings.

Go to Backup and Retention:

  • web client: Navigate to Backup and Retention.
Table 20: Backup and Retention settings
Setting Description
Archive servers Where you add and manage archive servers for storing backup files and session recordings.

Audit Log Maintenance

Where you define the audit logs to be archived and purged as well as a schedule for performing the audit log archival task.

Backup and Restore Where you initiate or schedule a backup, upload or download a backup file, or specify the archive server where a backup file is to be stored.
Backup Retention Where you enable (or disable) backup retention and set the maximum number of backup files you want Safeguard for Privileged Passwords to store on the appliance.

Authorize VM Compatible Backups

Where you authorize the download of Safeguard for Privileged Passwords hardware appliance backups which can then be uploaded and restored to a Safeguard for Privileged Passwords virtual machine.

About backups

One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords backs up the following:

  • All settings, except:

    • Appliance IP address
    • Network Time Protocol (NTP) configurations
    • Domain Name System (DNS) configuration
  • Audit logs

  • All information about Safeguard for Privileged Passwords objects:

    • Accounts
    • Account groups
    • Assets
    • Asset groups
    • Entitlements
    • Partitions
    • Users
    • User groups

Safeguard for Privileged Passwords encrypts and signs the data before it makes it available for downloading to an off-appliance storage. Only a genuine Safeguard for Privileged Passwords Appliance can decrypt the backup after it is uploaded to the appliance. Backups downloaded from virtual appliances can only be uploaded and restored to a virtual appliance. Backups downloaded from hardware appliances can only be uploaded and restored to a hardware appliance. A hardware backup can be downloaded as virtual compatible once the hardware appliance has been authorized for VM Compatible Backups. A VM compatible backup can be uploaded and restored to a virtual appliance.

Archive servers

Archive servers are external physical servers where you store backup files and session recordings. Use the Archive Servers page on the Backup and Retention settings view to configure and manage archive servers.

You can configure an automatic backup schedule and specify which archive server will be used to automatically archive during a scheduled backup or when manually running a backup. For more information, see Backup settings..
