Procedure documentationActivating a Database from a Backup

Procedure

Continuing with the troubleshooting experience, if a database has failed validation, and we have a valid backup, we will erase the corrupt database and replace it with our backup.

To activate a backup database:

  1. Locate your backup file.

  2. Locate the database working directory.

  3. Copy that backup into the working directory.

    The default directory for all databases is c:\Program Files\Triversity Databases. Within that directory is another directory called Backup, which is the recommended directory to place backups.

    Copy the required backup file(s) from the Backup directory to the Databases directory.
