How to Back-Up Canary Software (version 26)

Although Canary does not include a back-up feature within its software, the following 3 directories can be backed up using a 3rd party tool:

1. C:\Program Files\Canary - directory where Canary's executables reside
2. C:\Historian Data - directory where the actual data is stored for each DataSet. Data is stored in proprietary HDB3 files. (Only created when the Historian service is installed.)
3. C:\ProgramData\Canary - directory where Canary stores its program data used for its various services including Collectors, Calcs & Events, and Axiom user files

The directories listed above are the default locations and may be different for your system.
