Making database backups in Space

Introducción

You can make unscheduled database backups from the Salto Space Tools > Make DB Backup option. For example, you might need to make one before updating your Space software version or before carrying out server maintenance.

For database backups that are scheduled to be performed every seven days by the system, see the section on automatic database backups.

By default, system backups are stored in an SQL backup folder. For example: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.SQLEXPRESS\MSSQL\Backup

Note that the SQL folder name may vary slightly depending on which SQL version is installed. It is recommended to create all SQL backups in this folder. The backup file is saved with a .bak extension.

Restoring database backups

You cannot restore a backup while Space is connected to an existing backup.

You might need to restore an original database backup, for example, in case the server where the database was breaks down and you need to install Space or the database on a new server.

The database backup can be restored using Microsoft Management Studio or the Salto Space database tool, that is, the Salto.Space.MSSQL.Utility.exe file located in a Space folder, such as C:\SALTO\ProAccess Space\bin\dbutility, depending on each case.
