Chapter 4. Tariscope Maintenance
4.4. Archiving the call database
Archiving the call database can be made for backup only the calls data, as well as for reducing the size of the Tariscope database and, consequently, to improve the Tariscope performance. It should be remembered that the Microsoft SQL Server Express Edition is limited to a database size: 10 GB. Archiving can be done on the initiative of the administrator at any time using the Tariscope program or automatically at specified intervals. In the second case, use the Tariscope Tasks configuration page (section 3.18).
To do archiving on the initiative of the administrator, in the Tariscope program menu, select Tools → Archive. The Calls archive window appears as shown in Figure 4.4.1.

You can choose one from the following actions:
- Move to archive. Data with call information is archived in an external file and removed from the database.
- Restore calls. Call information is restored in the Tariscope database from a previously generated backup file.
- Delete calls. The selected call information is deleted from from the database.
To archive call information, click on the Move to archive button. The Calls archive window will be as shown in Figure 4.4.2.

Using the Browse button, select a folder to save the archive. By default, the system offers the next folder "...\Users\current_user\Documents\" and a file name "YYYY-MM-DD-HH-mm-SS.tsax" where:
YYYY – current year;
ММ – current month;
DD – current day;
HH – current hour;
mm – current minute;
SS – current second.
You may change this name.
If you want to archive data without deleting them from the database, clear the Remove calls after archive file creation check box.
Click Next. An example of the Calls archive window is shown in Figure 4.4.3.
