The temporary directory is used for various purposes, such as storage of temporary spooled file (for database specific backup type), remote file list, local file list, temporary delta file and other files of temporary nature.
To configure the temporary directory location, click [Change] and browse to the directory path for storing the temporary data.
For database specific backup type, data files spooled by the latest backup job can be kept by disabling the [Remove temporary files after backup] option.
Notes:
Administrators need to pay attention to the maximum file size limitation of different file system format, so that database file can be spooled to the temporary directory.
