Database Export/Import

You can export the database under normal operational conditions. When the program is
launched, a copy of the current database is made for the exporting purpose to avoid
database overwriting and modifications during export. Start the l8_config program with
the –cExportDatabase parameter with the following command to execute export:

C:\Program Files\2N TELEKOMUNIKACE\2N Lift8\Server\l8_config.exe
–cExportDatabase

The program creates a new file, db–20120221095921–export.xml, for example. The
number in the filename specifies the current export date and time in the
YYYYMMDDhhmmss format.

Being saved into a user data folder, the database may be different in different systems.

Database import may only be executed when the server is stopped. If the server is
running, the program identifies any importing attempt as an error. Enter the following
command to stop the server:

C:\Program Files\2N TELEKOMUNIKACE\ 2N Lift8\Server\l8_config.exe –cStopServer
