Backup Agents are delivered on a custom build basis. To get your own copy of the Backup Agent, generate the build, then download it. It is recommended to enable Sandbox, to test the build before it will be updated. Consider, you will be notified about custom build generation using Contact Email specified on Settings > General**.
Sandbox
Sandbox is the best practice to test the build before it could be updated automatically, because sandbox builds do not automatically update the agents. Sandbox builds can be used to update the agents manually and individually from the Management Console page. Once the build is tested, it can be marked as public, this will result in the automatic update (if enabled).
Enable Sandbox
To enable Sandbox, proceed as follows:
- Open the Management Console.
- Click Downloads.
- On the Options tab, click Enable Sandbox Now you can manage sandbox builds.
Update Sandbox Build to the Latest Versions
As soon as the new agent version become available, you will be prompled to update sandbox build.
Click Update sandbox to newer... to use the latest product version as a sandbox build.
Get Sandbox Build for Testing
