ADMINISTRATOR SECTION CHAPTER 2: CONFIGURING THE ER SERVER

Perform a Restoration to the ER Server

There are two parts in performing a restoration of data to your ER Server. Part one requires data to be loaded on the remote server and then FTPed to the ER Server. Part two requires the FTPed data to be restored on the ER Server.

NOTE: Before restoring backup data to the ER Server, be sure you have enough space on the ER Server. Data that is restored to the ER Server will automatically include indexes.

Perform these steps on the remote server:

1.Load the backup data on your remote server.

2.Log in to your FTP account.

3.FTP the backup data to the ER Server’s internal backup drive.

On the ER Server’s Backup screen:

1.Click the Manual Restore button in the Internal Backup/ Restore Action frame to specify that you wish to over- write data on the live ER Server with data from the previous, internal backup run.

2.On the Confirm Backup/Restore screen, click the Yes button to restore database tables and indexes to the ER Server.

NOTE: The amount of time it will take to restore data to the ER Server depends on the combined size of all database tables being restored. 8e6 recommends that you do not perform other functions on the ER Server until the restoration is complete.
