Database Backup on SUITEONDEMAND system

💬 General Discussion
1

Hello all. I am trying to use the backup option in Admin to get copies of my databases, etc for offline testing and development. To the best of my knowledge, we have not FTP, File Manager, etc access to the SUITEONDEMAND system. When running the backup wizard, it either tells me my directories are not writeable, of just goes to a next screen and nothing happens.

HELP! =)

John,

Getting concerned here. No email, no data, no files. Really need them now.

I had replied on 6/1 stating it was ok to proceed. I just found a bounce notice in my Clutter box in Outlook. Please go ahead and perform the backup as requested (i.e. all files and databases). I am starting to fall behind in my project. Thanks.
