Backing Up and Restoring the Database

This manual is in pilot operation.

Back up the database regularly. We also recommend taking a backup after importing a large volume of data.

Backup

The database backup procedure is as follows.

  1. Stop the server program.

  2. From the database folder, copy all files ⚠ in the db subfolder and store them in a separate location. These become your backup files.

  3. Start the server program.

Strictly speaking, the index file (fusionplace.index.db) does not need to be backed up.

Restore

Restore means rebuilding the database from the backup files. When you restore, the current database contents will be lost and replaced with the contents of the backup files.

  1. Stop the server program.

  2. In the db subfolder of the database folder, delete all files.

  3. Copy the backup files into the db subfolder of the database folder. Do not change file names.

  4. Start the server program.
