8.2.2
Restore
Should one or more database files become corrupted or erased due to a hard drive failure,
power surges or other unpredictable events, it is necessary to restore the databases from
backup files. The
Restore
function allows loading of selected databases from backup files. It is
not necessary to perform the
Restore
function on all databases in order to restore any one. All
changes that occurred since the last backup are lost when a database is restored. Therefore,
restore only those databases with a problem. Backups should be made whenever significant
changes are made to any database.
Notice!
If the Security Escort system is configured to share the database, you will need to exit the
Security Escort program on all slave and workstation computers. The master computer will
not be able to perform the restore properly as other computers are also using the files. The
master computer needs to have exclusive use of the database files.
Figure 8.9: Restore Dialog
Select the database to be restored on the left. On the right, this is where the database backup
is currently located. Click the
[Restore]
button to replace the existing database file with the
backup. This process also rebuilds the database and its index tables to correct most database
structure problems. To abort the restore process, click the
[Cancel]
button.
