Choose the shared folders and supported package data, then provide only the destination access needed. Schedule the first large transfer around business traffic; use bandwidth controls if appropriate. Set retention from the business requirement rather than accepting an arbitrary version count that may fill storage.<\/p>\n<p>If client-side encryption is enabled, store the key and password through controlled handover outside the source NAS. Enable integrity checks and failure notifications where supported, with a named responder. Synology&#8217;s multiversion .hbk repository uses its own format and is accessed through Hyper Backup, Explorer or Vault, not as an ordinary folder of files.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pilot_verify_and_hand_over\"><\/span>Pilot, verify and hand over<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Run a representative first backup and inspect logs, destination size, duration and completion status. Edit a test file, run another version and confirm the earlier version is selectable. Test destination access using the recovery account, not only the task creator. A green status is not acceptance: <a href='https:\/\/itsystems.vn\/en\/synology-hyper-backup-restore-test-guide\/'>restore sample data<\/a> and record the result.<\/p>\n<p>Assign recurring checks for failed jobs, near-full capacity, old versions and key custody. If moving the source or destination, follow Synology&#8217;s relink workflow; renaming the .hbk repository folder can break relinking.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_asked_questions\"><\/span>Frequently asked questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_does_Hyper_Backup_differ_from_RAID_and_snapshots\"><\/span>How does Hyper Backup differ from RAID and snapshots?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>RAID tolerates specified drive failures; snapshots retain points in time on supported storage; Hyper Backup creates a copy at another destination.
