Other properties and methods are optional. 

Paths of backup files are relative to the server. Because the TADIBNBackup executes backup on the DB server host, the DB Service Manager writes backup files on the server host. The DB Services Manager also creates files in the context of the server. 

To restore an backup performed by TADIBNBackup use the TADIBNRestore component.
