4.3. Restore the database from backup
If you already have the Tariscope database, to recover information from a full backup, or a group of files containing full backup and differential backups, select the Backups branch of the Tariscope configuration tree. On the Backups page, click on the Restore database icon on the toolbar. The Restore database window appeares as shown in Figure 4.3.1.
Figure 4.3.1
In case you do not have the Tariscope database connected to the system, you can restore the database from backup using the Restore database utility.
Since the Restore database icon causes the Restore database utility, consider recovering the database, which executes using the Restore database icon.
Attention. It should be remembered that the Restore database utility replaces the entire current Tariscope database to that which is stored in the backup.
Click on the Add button. The Open window appears. Select files that contains backups of the Tariscope database. The selected files will be displayed in the list of the Restore database window. In that case, when the restore of the database is performed from several files at the beginning of the file list should be a full backup and then the differential backups in order of their creation. To organize your files like this, use the Move Up and Move Down buttons. To exclude a file from the list, use the Remove button
In the Database location list, select a location to unpack database backup. There are following options:
- Default. The database will be restored to a folder where it was when the backup was created.
- Backup file folder. The database will be restored to a folder where the backup file is located.
- Custom. The administrator is prompted to choose a folder to store the database.
Click OK. The database restore will be executed.
