Backup

The Backup module lets you create and restore system safety copies. A backup covers, among others:

• the logical structure of the machine park (parks, lines, machines),

• the defined statuses and the rules assigned to them (configuration),

• user accounts,

• other key elements of the system configuration.

The function ensures the safety of configuration data and lets you quickly restore the system in case of a failure/data loss, migration to a new server instance or when testing new versions.

Export - creating a backup and the backup list

In the Export tab:

• in the Create backup section you select the backup type (e.g. Configuration, Users) and click Run - the system creates a new backup,

• in the List of backups created section you see all backups (the Date and type columns), with sorting. For each item the available actions are:

  • Import - restore (recover) the system from this backup,

  • Download - download the backup file to disk.

Import - restoring from a file

In the Import tab you can restore the system from a backup file:

• Select configuration file - indicate the backup file,

• Upload - perform the import.

Below, a List of imports performed is shown (when it was done, the date the backup is from, the type) - which makes it easier to audit restore operations.
