Using MyServer for data backups

You can map a drive letter over a secure VPN link to our data centre.  Simply then use the "FileCopy" function as part of the MyServer connectivity software pack to copy data to us.

You can script these backups and use the built in scheduler within the MyServer connectivity software in which to start your backup script at a particular time of day.

Useful script examples are:-

@echo off
filecopy <source-dir>  U:\MyServer\<destination-dir>
filecopy u:\MyPartners\From\masltd  c:\FilesRecieved

@echo off
rasdial MyServer
net use u:  \\10.0.1.201\<username> * /user:<username>
filecopy c:\mydatafoldername  u:\myserver\mydatafoldername
net use u: /d /y
rasdial MyServer /d

Notes:-

  • If there are spaces in your folder names or files names you will need to wrap them in quotation marks as per some of the examples above.
