Overview

This document will describes you about how to setup backup schedule.

Once the Acronis Backup Agent has been successfully deployed, all the structure of mailboxes, folders, contacts, email content of the protected O365 tenant, etc. will be pulled into the Acronis Management Console.

It is recommended that a dedicated machine, with 24/7 uptime, is used so backups can be scheduled during off-hours.

  2. Click the Backupoption at the left side menu.
