FTP Transfer of Backup Files

  • Printer-friendly version

Notice: The Backup/Restore tool page has been removed from the System tab. It is located as a menu selection under the newly introduced System Tools tab. This is a location change only; the functionality remains the same. While the image below reflects the new menu structure, some of the images of the UCX Web-based Configuration Utility contained within this documentation may not yet be updated to reflect this change.

The Web-based Configuration Utility allows you to move backup files from your UCX system to an FTP server (or vice versa) using a simple drag and drop approach.

To move backup files from your UCX system to an FTP server (or from an FTP server back to your UCX system), perform the following steps:

  1. Open the UCX Web-based Configuration Utility
  2. From the System tab, select System Tools
  3. From the left hand menu, select Backup/Restore
  4. Press the FTP Transfer button
  5. On the right side, enter required information about the FTP server and user credentials
  6. Press the Save button to establish a connection with the FTP server
  7. After the connection with the FTP server is successfully established, drag files between the Local area (i.e., your UCX system) and the FTP Server area as desired. After moving each file, you should wait for the confirmation that the file was successfully transferred.
  8. Once finished, press the Back button to exit the FTP Transfer page

If FTP server software is not running on the system with the configured FTP Server IP address, pressing the FTP Transfer button may result in a very long time-out before the attempt to establish a connection with the FTP server is aborted. If your browser appears to be "frozen" after you pressed the FTP Transfer button, you must wait for approximately 1 minute for the page to be displayed.
