Backing up configuration data
How to proceed?
General
The configuration data is saved in tiBase in the Configuration data-
base. Included among the configuration data are settings for the data
import, Security settings (see Chapter 3.2.2.1, page 83), User admin-
istration (see Chapter 3.2.1.1, page 75), Program administration (see
Chapter 3.2.3.1, page 93) and templates.
In local server systems (tiBase full), the configuration database is located
in the program directory of the computer on which the program has been
installed. In client/server systems (tiBase multi), the configuration data-
base is stored centrally on the server and contains all the configuration
data of all computers (clients) that are connected to this server.
Note
It is strongly recommended that the configuration database be backed
up periodically.
Backing up configuration data manually
1 Select Configuration program part.
2 Click on the File
▶ Backup ▶ Manually menu item.
The Backup configuration data manually dialog window opens.
3 Select the directory for the backup in the Backup directory field.
4 Select or enter a new name for the backup file in the Backup name
list box. If an existing backup file is selected, it will be overwritten.
Note
If the backup directory is on a network drive, the backup date
should be added manually to the Backup name because the
backup date information is not available when the data is restored.
5 Click on [Start].
