== CHANGE PBA FULL BACKUP PATH ==
The PBA backups default path is set to '''''/var/hda/apps/pba/backups'''''Italic text'' directory on the operating system drive. To change this to a secondary hard drive, a symbolic link is required.
* Make a sub directory '''backup''backup'''Italic text'' to the '''files''files'''Italic text'' directory on the secondary hard drive.* Change to the '''''/var/hda/apps/pba'''''Italic text'' directory on the operating system drive. Ensure the backups directory does not exist. If it does, remove it.
* As user ''root'', enter '''ln –sf /var/had/files/backups backups''' (must match the path set when adding a secondary hard drive.
* Verify ownership of '''''/var/had/pba/backups'''''Italic text'' (symbolic link) is set to ''apache:apache''.* Ensure settings in '''''/etc/fstab'''''Italic text'' for the secondary drive include uid=48,gid=48 (see note).
* Reboot and attempt a LAN backup. The full backup files should now be saved to the secondary hard drive.
NOTE: This sets ownership of the drive/directories to user apache and group apache. To verify the correct uid and gid, enter id apache. It will display the applicable uid and gid. Permissions must be set as such for the PBA backups to be directed to the secondary hard drive. This is how my secondary drive is configured in '''''/etc/fstab'''''Italic text''.
