Using the Command Line Interface and Script Files


Comodo Backup allows users to operate its backup, restore and scheduling functionality from the Windows command line interface. Command lines (and sequences of command lines) for backup and restore tasks can also be saved as a script file (.txt format) which can be called to execute the task from the command line interface.


To access the Windows command line interface
  • Click Start > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.

or

  • Click Start > Run, type 'cmd' in the Run interface and click 'OK'.

Click the links below for more details on the tasks executed from the Command Line Interface:

  • Running a Backup Task from the Command Line Interface

  • Running a Restore Task from the Command Line Interface

  • Running a Scheduled Backup Job Instantly from the Command Line Interface

  • Running Backup/Restore Tasks using Script Files

 

Note:  The command lines that has more than 260 characters including path to CBU.exe will not work, so use script files to avoid this limitation.
