What is a cloud archive? This is a tool for backing up a database through automatic backup and archiving on remote servers in cloud storage.

Setting up a cloud archive is very simple. First, we need to download the processing from the 1C website. After downloading, we add it to our database via “File” - “Open”. If we add processing to the system for the first time, warning messages will appear, do not be alarmed and respond to them with Approval.

The “1C: Cloud Archive” window will open. And we will be prompted to “Download the agent” or “Specify the path to the agent.” Since the initial installation of the Cloud Archive is taking place, we select “Download Agent”. The 1C website will open, where we will be offered to download the “1C Agent: Cloud Archive” application. After downloading, we begin installing the application. When the installation is completed on the computer, we go back to setting up our cloud archive in 1C. Now we need to “Specify the path to the agent”, after which we will be prompted to enter the login and password for the 1C website. Enter the required data and connect.

A window will open in front of us to configure the “Cloud Archive”.

Let's look at some setup points.

On the “Databases” tab, enable backup of the current infobase.
On the “Schedule” tab we can more flexibly configure the agent launch schedule for backup.
On the “Storage” tab, select the number of copies to be stored on the server.
On the “Advanced” tab, enter the login and password for a user with Administrator rights.

After all the changes have been made, close the window. This completes our setup.

I would also like to draw your attention to an important factor! The user should not be in the database at the time the backup starts.

Backup

Perhaps the most common method of storing data is storage on hard drives. However, this method of storing data does not guarantee that the data will not be lost at some point. Hard drives tend to sometimes fail, and so that this does not turn out to be a serious problem for you, we recommend setting up backup.

Backing up a 1C database is creating an additional copy of the database, which will be saved in the event of data loss or damage to your computer. The most common occurrences of data loss on hard drives are:

Malfunction of the computer power supply;
When the lights are turned off;
Due to improper operation of the hard drive;
Infection of the system with computer viruses;

“Backup” (from the English backup) - backup, duplication. Backup copy - creating an additional copy of the database on a storage medium.

There are several ways to create a backup copy: on physical media, using cloud services.

External hard drive

Large data storage capacity. High acquisition cost.

Flash drive

A fairly cheap option for storing a copy of a database. Limit on the number of entries. If you frequently overwrite data, it will quickly fail.

Cheap to purchase, limited recording capacity. Almost one-time data recording. Frequent disk damage.

Internet services

A good alternative to external hard drives. Relatively inexpensive cloud storage access.

Why is backup necessary?

I think that in this article we have described and described this operation in more detail as a backup. But if you suddenly have any questions, we suggest you watch this video.

On the ITS services portal. To use the Cloud Archive, your software product must be registered on portal.1c.ru. Please note that Cloud Archive only works with file databases.

STEP 1. Log in to your Personal Account

STEP 3. Install Backup Agent

1. On the first screen, click the “Next” button:

2. A feature of the current version of the Agent is the ability to select the user under which to install the Backup Agent.

2.1. If your databases are located on the same computer where the 1C platform is installed, we recommend choosing the option to create a new user “1CBackupAgent” (menu item “Create new 1CBackupAgent user”).

2.2. If you have the 1C platform installed on a terminal server and you are installing the Agent on it, then we strongly recommend that you select the same option to create a new user “1CBackupAgent” when installing a new Agent.

2.3. If your databases are located on a remote server, and the connection occurs via a local network, then we recommend selecting the second item from this menu - “Use an existing user”. In this case, the user must have local administrator rights on the computer where the Agent is installed and access to a file resource on the remote computer.
Enter your Username and Password in the appropriate fields, then click the “Next” button.

3. On the next screen you can select a location to install the Backup Agent, but please note that if the agent is installed on a drive other than drive C, you will also need to make changes to the Agent configuration file (see paragraph 6 of this manual).

To change the installation directory, click the “Browse...” button and in the window that opens, select the folder to install the Agent. Click the "Next" button:

4. To install the Agent with the selected parameters, click the “Proceed” button:

5. When the installation is complete, close the window, launch the 1C platform and begin configuring backup using Processing.

6. If you installed the Backup Agent on a drive other than drive C, then you will need to edit the following fields in the BackupAgent.xml file, which is located in the Config folder of the Backup Agent installation directory.

6.1. In the configuration file, find the field and change the drive selection there in the path where the log folder is located. By default this folder is C:\BackupAgent\logs.

6.2. In the same file, find the field and change the working directory drive to the one on which the Backup Agent is installed. By default this folder is C:\BackupAgent\workingDirectory.

STEP 4: Activate backup

To activate the backup, enter the Login and Password of your account on the portal portal.1c.ru.

STEP 5: Set up a backup schedule

1. Go to the “Backup Management” section.

2. To enable backup of your infobase, go to the “Bases” tab and check the “Enable backup of the current infobase” checkbox. Or click the “Enable” button on the main processing screen.

3. To set up a backup schedule, go to the “Schedule” section and select the desired options. By default, the backup time is set to 22.00. In addition, in this section there is the ability to set a schedule by day of the week, once a month on a certain day, several times a month, and it is possible to start the schedule after a certain number of seconds. When setting this option, pay attention to the fact that you need to specify a sufficient amount of time to exit processing and 1C before starting the backup.

4. On the “Storage” tab, the number and types of database copies that will be stored in the cloud are indicated (number of daily copies, weekly and monthly copies).

5. This version of the Agent provides for changing the user under whose control the backup system will operate. Initially, user parameters are entered when installing the Agent. You can change them later on the “Advanced” tab:

6. Installation and configuration of the Backup Agent has been successfully completed. You can view the availability of backup copies in your Personal Account after the copying is complete.

7. Please note that in order to successfully perform a backup, the system needs exclusive access to the database. In other words, the User should not be in the database at the time the backup starts.
