Backing up and Restoring Hub Servers Manually
NOTE: You may only restore a DSView 3 software hub server with a backup archive made using an identical
DSView 3 software version. For example, you may not restore a hub server running DSView 3 software version
3.2 using a backup archive made with DSView 3 software version 3.1.
You may manually create a backup of your hub server. Two methods are available:
• From a command line in an MS-DOS window. This method may be used for DSView 3
software hub servers on supported Windows or Linux systems.
• Using the Backup and Restore Utility delivered with the DSView 3 software. The backup is
saved as a .zip file containing the files needed to restore the DSView 3 management software.
This method may be used for DSView 3 software hub servers on supported Windows
systems only.
Client sessions will be temporarily disconnected during a manual backup. The sessions will be
automatically reconnected when the backup is completed.
Hub server backups may also be automatically created as a task within the DSView 3 software. If
you use the Backup DSView database and system files task, client sessions will not be temporarily
disconnected. See
Task: Backup DSView 3 software database and system files on page 280.
Manual backup and restore procedures require DSView 3 software administrator privileges.
To manually backup or restore a hub server using a command line on a supported
Windows system:
1. In the Start menu on your desktop, select Start - Programs - Accessories - Command Prompt .
A command prompt window will open.
2. Change directories to the directory in which the DSView 3 software is installed (typically
C:\Program Files\Avocent DSView 3.0\bin).

DSViewBackupRestore to display the DSView 3 Backup/Restore Utility dialog box.
