How to Back Up System Data Backup System Data and Disk Files
The following additional key words may also be used with RESTORE.
If you request that a type of table be restored, but the data for it does not exist in the input file,
no error message will be printed. The name of each table type is printed as it is restored.
Below are some examples of commands for restoring system data from backups.
• RESTORE EVERYTHING restores all tables that are backed up in the file
SYSBACK.DTA and prints the name of each table as it is restored.
• RESTORE EVERYTHING CORRUPT FROM filename (where filename is
SYSBACK.DTA, TRANBACK.DTA, or whatever you named the backup file you made
your custom system backup) restores the records contained in a line, even if they have a
bad checksum. When an error is found, the type of table along with the line number in the
file is reported.
• RESTORE EVERYTHING EXCEPT TANKS TOTALS FROM filename (where
filename is SYSBACK.DTA, TRANBACK.DTA, or whatever you named the backup file
restores all tables that are backed up in the file filename except tanks and totals tables, and
prints the name of each table as it is restored.
• RESTORE RECONSTRUCTED restores all tables that are backed up in the file
SYSBACK.DTA and that have been reconstructed. This is useful after installing a new
release of the software that has caused some tables to be reconstructed.
• RESTORE TRANSACTIONS FROM filename (where filename is TRANBACK.DTA,
or whatever you named the backup file you made with BACKTRAN) restores the
transaction table that has been backed up with TRANBACK or BACKTRAN.
• RESTORE PUMPS PRODUCTS PRICES restores the pump, product, and price tables
from the file SYSBACK.DTA.
corrupt restores the records contained in a line with a bad checksum; when an error is found, the
type of table along with the line number in the file is reported.
everything restores the entire contents of the backup file.
except excludes tables that have already been specified.
from file specifies that the tables be restored from the backup file file (ex. TRANBACK.DTA). If this
keyword is not used, the default file SYSBACK.DTA will be used as the input file.
reconstructed restores all files that have been reconstructed. It is used to restore files that have been
reconstructed when a new release is installed.
