I used DashBoard to "save as" Policy Package into a different name. However, I don't know where the package get stored on the Checkpoint Firewall server. I tried to search on HDD with the new package name that I saved. I still don't know what to backup. I want to backup the Policy Package. Please tell me.

You can't back up policy packages independently, because policies depend on objects in the database - you may have noticed that all defined objects are available regardless of which policy is currently loaded. When you install policy on an enforcement point, the management server determines which objects are referenced by the current policy and pushes only the required objects with the policy.
If you described what you are trying to achieve in broader terms, perhaps we could assist.
