Windows: Backup System State Data with Commands

by

To back up System State data using a command line:

1. Open Command Prompt.

2. To backup the System State data, type: ntbackup backup systemstate

Value Description
systemstate specifies that you want to back up the System State data.

When you select this option, the backup type will be forced to copy.

For information about additional backup options, see the ntbackup command-line utility.

For example, to create a backup job named “Backup Job 1″ that backs up the System State data to the file C:backup.bkf, type:

ntbackup backup systemstate /J “Backup Job 1″ /F “C:backup.bkf”

All other options will default to those specified in the Backup program.

Notes:
To open command prompt, click Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, and then click Command Prompt.

To view the complete syntax for this command, at a command prompt, type:

ntbackup /

If you do not specify the other backup options, ntbackup will use the backup program’s default values for the backup type, verification setting, logging level, hardware compression and any other settings.
