For proper data management, you may choose to use remote backup on a regular schedule, or you may choose ongoing real-time synchronization. You can also, with the new version 6.1 of FileReplicationPro, choose to back up older files gradually while keeping currently-used files in sync.
Still, even with the most carefully-chosen data management plan, there may be times when you’d like to be able to run a job outside of the regular schedule.
For example, you might have a remote worker working on a project in a different time zone. You may not need to sync this worker with your office server all the time, but you want to make sure the files are backed up to your server at the end of his workday.
You may prefer to allow him to back up his server data by invoking this action from a web page you have created for him, without granting him access to the Management Server.
This can be accomplished programmatically by using a script. You define the job, in this case calling it ProductsKL2LA, and write it into the script as a command line.
FRPCLI 71.58.12.01 jobstart name=ProductsKL2LA
Your remote worker can run the job out of schedule, and you maintain the security of your data.
