Use LNS Hot Backup
Automatically creates a hot backup copy of the LNS network
database, if required, when creating a LonMaker backup. This
option is selected by default.
If this check box is cleared and the LNS network database is being
accessed while attempting to create a LonMaker backup, a prompt
appears and offers the following three choices:
• Exit all applications accessing the database and try again.
• Use the LNS hot backup (creates an LNS hot backup).
• Cancel the backup request.

Delete LNS Hot
Backup after LM
Backup
Deletes the hot backup copy of the network database once a standard
LonMaker backup has been created. The LonMaker tool may create
an LNS hot backup of the LNS network database when creating a
LonMaker backup file. When an LNS hot backup copy is created, a
copy of it is placed in the LonMaker backup file. Select this check
box to delete the extra copy.
If this check box is cleared, the hot backup copy of the network
database created by the LNS hot backup will be preserved.
This option is cleared by default.
Scope: All networks, current LonMaker computer
Max Number of LNS
Hot Backups
Sets the maximum number of unique hot backup copies of an LNS
database that will be preserved. An LNS hot backup copy of the
LNS network database may be created when an LNS backup file is
created. If the Delete LNS Hot Backup after LM Backup check
box is cleared, the LNS hot backup copies are preserved. Select a
value between 1 and 99. The default value is 5.
