What is the difference to a snapshot and a backup ? Thanks.

However the backup command will not backup the log files. If you have set up log management on the management server object's properties you can define a script that will be run before deleting old files. Alternatively you can create a cron job. These scripts can take backups of the log files and possibly copying them to an internal TFTP or SCP server. Whether or not SPLAT supports local backups on tape drives, I do not know. It is a matter of having drivers for tape streamers or not. If so you can use the tar command on expert mode or via a script.
