Lets see a more realistic example (from the config above)
If we would check only one location we could run the following: `autorestic check -l home`. Otherwise simpply check all locations with `autorestic check -a`
```
##### Note
autorestic check -l important
```
If we would check only one location we could run the following: `autorestic -l home check`.
Note that the data is automatically encrypted on the server. The key will be generated and added to your config file. Every backend will have a separate key. You should keep a copy of the keys somewhere in case your server dies. Otherwise DATA IS LOST!
