Adjust your backup settings

# Configuración

# Automatic backup

Turn this option on to have Déjà Dup automatically back up for you. This is recommended so that you don’t forget to do it yourself. Backups are more useful the more recent they are, so it is important to back up regularly.

# Cartafoles que gardar

Choose a list of folders to save in your backup. Press the Add or Remove buttons to modify the list. If you are only interested in backing up your own data, the default of Home is sufficient.

# Cartafoles a ignorar

Choose a list of folders to not save in your backup. Press the Add or Remove buttons to modify the list.

Algúns dos seus datos poden ocupar moito pero non ser importantes para vostede. Nese caso, pódese aforrar algún tempo e espazo non incluíndoos na copia de seguranza.

Some locations are always ignored by default:

~/.adobe/Flash_Player/AssetCache

~/.cache

~/.gvfs

~/.Private

~/.recent-applications.xbel

~/.recently-used.xbel

~/.steam/root (which by default also ignores ~/.local/share/Steam)

~/.thumbnails

~/.xsession-errors

/proc

/run

/sys

/tmp

# Localización do almacenamento

Use these options to specify the storage location that Déjà Dup will use when backing up or restoring:

# Servizos na nube

The first few storage locations are cloud storage services provided by various companies. For a small fee, they hold your data for you. A cloud service like this is recommended because it is an easy way to keep your data offsite (meaning out of your home: in case of disaster or theft, your data will still be safe).

These services cost money. Read their rates carefully before using them.

# Servidores remotos

Choose the type of remote server to which you want to connect. Then you can enter the server information. Alternatively, if you know your server’s URL, choose Custom Location and enter it.

# Soportes extraíbeis

Pode ver listados soportes extraíbeis como discos duros externos ou memorias flash.

# Cartafol local

You may also want to choose a local folder as a storage location. Note that backups can be quite large, so make sure you have enough free disk space.

This is not recommended, because if your hardware fails, you will lose both your original data and your backups.

# Keep

Escolla o mínimo tempo durante o que manter os ficheiros da copia de seguranza. Se cre que a copia de seguranza está a empregar demasiado espazo, pode querer diminuír a súa duración. Debido a detalles da implementación, pode ser que os ficheiros se manteñan algún tempo mais do escollido. Pero non se borrarán ficheiros antes de tempo.

Backups are kept forever by default, but still may be deleted earlier if the storage location begins to run out of space.
