Can't use gbak.exe with embedded, what to do?

Woody told me this:
"Since there is no server running, gbak cannot attach to the services
manager to perform it's tasks. If you want to use actual FB/IB backup,
then use either the FB(IBO, etc.) or IB(IBX, etc) admin backup
components instead of gbak."

This sounds right to me after reading all I could about embedded.

q: IYO, What is the correct/best way to do backups when using embedded?
