{{note| If you are running IMSMA in a client/server configuration, the following procedures should be performed on the IMSMA '''server'''. }}
To restore IMSMA data on the server:
<ol>
<li>Are your '''really''' sure that you would like to write over the existing database on the server?</li>
<li>Do you have backup that contains all '''attachments'''?</li>
<li>Before beginning the restoration process, verify that the {{IMSMANG}} server, all IMSMA clients and all connections to the {{IMSMANG}} database from e.g. Navicat have been disconnected.</li>
<li>If the IMSMA Control Centre icon is not already displayed in the lower, right corner of your Window’s desktop, double-click the IMSMA Tray Launcher icon on your computer’s desktop.</li>
<li>Right-click the IMSMA Control Centre icon that is displayed in the lower, right corner of your Window’s desktop.</li>
[[Image:Backup Restore menu.png|center]]<li>Select '''IMSMA Backup and Restore > Restore'''.</li></ol>

<li>In the '''Include the Following''' section, each item that is available to be restored component in the backup folder is checked by default. Uncheck the checkbox (marked with [[Image:CheckedBoxIcon.png]]) . Uncheck the checkbox next to each item component you do not want to restore.</li>:Items {{Note | Components that are disabled were not backed up to included in the file IMSMA backup that you selected to restore and cannot be included. If you do not check any itemscomponents, only the IMSMA database and any attachments will be restored. }}{{Warning | If the backup folder that you are about to restore contains the folder Backup_YYYY_MM_DD_HH_MM_SS\server\attachments then all your existing '''attachments''' on the server will be '''deleted''' and replaced with what is in Backup_YYYY_MM_DD_HH_MM_SS\server\attachments. This behaviour also applies when Backup_YYYY_MM_DD_HH_MM_SS\server\attachments is empty.}}
<li>Click the '''Restore''' button.</li>
<li>First the files outside of the database will be restored and at 20% the IMSMA Restore will ask for the password.</li>{{Note| It is possible to change the database password with SQL software. Note that ''C:\IMSMAng\trayLauncher\TrayLauncher.properties'' also needs to be updated.}}<li>Enter the database password. [[Image:Imsma pwd2.png|center|400px]]</li><li>Click the '''OK''' button.</li> <li>The IMSMA Restore will continue and now the database is restored from the backup.</li>[[Image:A window displays one Restore3.png|center|400px]]</li><li>The attachments will be restored at 90%.</li>[[Image:Restore4.png|center|400px]]</li><li>Click the '''OK''' button. [[Image:Restore confirm.png|center|250px]]</li><li>The IMSMA Control Centre closes. The IMSMA Control Centre needs to be closed because the IMSMA database restored may be of an earlier version than the messages:current version of the IMSMA application and therefore needs to be upgraded to the same version as the IMSMA application.</li></ol> {{Warning | It is not possible to upgrade a database of version 1 - 5.08.04 by restoring it with version 6.0. Contact your [[Information Management Team | GICHD IM advisor]] if you would like to upgrade a database of version 1 - 5.08.04 to version 6.0.}}
If you see these messages, your computer is configured as an IMSMA client and it is not possible to restore the database.
