8-3. BACKUP AND RECOVERY
In the case of a disastrous loss of the SiteOmat BOS or FCC software and database, a special
procedure must be followed to recover the state of the system. The recovery process is possible only
if a backup of the database exists.
The system allows the user to perform a DB backup which includes:
• Setup of the station
• Transactions, receipts, etc.
• Local management
In order to perform a DB back procedure, click Setup, select the Global tab and click on the
Backup
button. The Setup Backup dialog box appears (see Figure 8-5):
Figure 8-5. Backup Screen
This screen enables the user to setup the backup time and the target to which the DB files are
downloaded. The backup is done to an FTP server on separate computer. For additional information
on FTP servers please see the following links:
