Restoring a Backup of the INUBIT Process Engine

Overview of Restoring a Backup

Prerequisites

The server on which a backup is to be restored must first be configured to run with the INUBIT software, including a valid license and the configuration files, including ibis.xml and logsDBConfig.xml.

Options of the Restore Script

The script restore.sh or restore.bat restores a previously created backup of your INUBIT Process Engine.

If you have not selected an option, the Interactive mode starts. You will be prompted to select the data to be restored.

If you have selected at least one option, the selected data is automatically restored without further prompts.

A backup can also be done by using the script backup.sh.
