IBM® iSeries™ Integrated Server Support allows you to save integrated server data (files, directories, shares, and the Windows registry) to tape, optical or disk (*SAVF) along with other i5/OS™ data and restore the data on an individual basis. However, you should not use this approach as your primary backup procedure. You should still periodically save your entire system and the NWSD associated with your Windows server for disaster recovery. Then you can choose to do daily backups of only the integrated server files that have changed. See Back up the NWSD and other objects associated with an integrated Windows server.
For information about the file-level backup function, see these topics:
You can also use a utility such as the Backup program that comes with Windows (see Windows Backup utility). For more information about options for backup and recovery of your integrated Windows server files, see Backup for Windows servers on the System i integration with BladeCenter and System x Web site.
