How to configure Backup on the command line

On the command line, you can configure Backup settings using the BackupDaysToLive, BackupSizeLimit and QuarantineBackupFolder settings in the general application settings.

If you need to edit the Backup settings, you can:

  • Modify all Backup settings using the configuration file. To do so:
    1. Output the settings to a configuration file using the command kfl-control --get-app-settings --file <path to configuration file> [--json].

      A configuration file with the current settings is generated.

    2. Make changes to the Backup settings in the generated configuration file by selecting available values.
    3. Save the configuration file.
    4. Run the command kfl-control --set-app-settings --file <path to configuration file> [--json].
  • Edit individual Backup settings using the kfl-control --set-app-settings <setting name>=<setting value> [<setting name>=<setting value>].
