1. Select  Access iManage Drive settings and then select File Backup. Alternatively, run the iManageDriveConsole file_backup command if the iManage Drive UI panel isn't available—for example, Applications/iManage/iManageDrive.app./Contents/MacOS/iManageDrive file_backup. The following prompt is displayed:

   Figur: File backup prompt

   

2. (Optional) To include every version of the file available in Document Change Log, select the Include document change log files check box.

3. Select Create Backup. A progress bar is displayed

   Also, you can do the following:

   • Select the Pause button to pause the file backup creation process.

   • Select More details to view the details of the file being backed up and also the total number of files remaining. Select Fewer details to hide the details.
