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:
- 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.
- 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.
- Right-click the IMSMA Control Centre icon that is displayed in the lower, right corner of your Window’s desktop.
- Select IMSMA Backup and Restore > Restore.
- In the IMSMA Restore window, click the
button. - The Open window displays
- Navigate to the directory from which you would like to restore your IMSMA data.
- Click the Open button.
- The name of the directory displays in the Select the directory you want to restore from field.
- In the Include the Following section, each item that is available to be restored is checked by default. Uncheck the checkbox (
) next to each item you do not want to restore. - Click the Restore button.
- First the files outside of the database will be restored and at approximately 20% the IMSMA Restore will ask for the passwork.
- Enter the database password.
- Click the OK button.
- The IMSMA Restore will continue and now the database is restored from the backup.
- Click the OK button.
- The TrayLauncher/IMSMA Control Centre closes.
- The TrayLauncher needs to be closed because the IMSMA database restored may be of an earlier version than the current version of the IMSMA application and therefore needs to be upgraded to the same version as the IMSMA application.
