Then fpcommands.xml is also changed 4. fpcommands.xml is distributed to target PC with keeping change. And fpa.txt is also changed on the target PC. 5. Next, change "Continuous protection level" on Admin PC from "None" to "Local and remote storage". 6. fpa.txt is changed on the local system 7. Check the "Publish this computer's settings as the configuration template for other computers to use" check box in Central Management again. Then fpcommands.xml is also changed. 8.
