Restoring Backup Files on Windows Systems

Use the WinZip or pkunzip command to restore files from the backup file on Windows systems.

1. Shut down the entity whose files you are restoring.
   • If you are restoring a project, use the cluster administration tool to stop the project.
   • If you are restoring a cluster, use the cluster administration tool to stop each node in the cluster.
2. Extract the files to restore from the backup file.
   For example, to extract files from backup.zip use:

   c:
   cd \
   pkunzip backup.zip

3. If the files you want to restore were created using the online backup process, rename all .bak files to .log files.
4. Restart the project or cluster.
