InstallationSigned Windows/macOS/Linux package or Docker container, then configure backups through its local web UI
DatenEach backup target contains encrypted compressed `.dblock` data volumes, `.dindex` indexes, and one `.dlist` manifest per version; a local database accelerates catalog and restore operations.
EinrichtungThe first setup is not just an install: you must supply destination credentials, choose encryption and retention, preserve the passphrase, and understand how to rebuild from remote volumes if the local database is lost.
