This type of backup allows you to schedule the database backup to be executed at any specific point of time.
Navigate to Admin >> Configuration >> Database Backup.
In the pop-up window that appears, select the schedule option - day, weekly or monthly.
Select the time frequency (dd:hh:mm) at which the backup has to occur.
The Destination Directory field shows the default directory path: <AMP_installation_directory>/backUp. You can change the path, if required.
Every time backup is executed according to schedule, a backup file will be created in the destination directory. Specify the maximum number of latest backup files to be stored in the directory. For example, if you choose "10" from the drop-down Maintain latest, only the latest 10 backup files will be stored in the directory.
Click Save. The backup schedule is now created.
