Restore database
This feature will replace your current database with a database from the backup.
|
We recommend that you have a snapshot of the VM, or a backup of the current database. This is a fallback if you experience issues during restore. |
Follow these instructions below to restore the database:
1.Log in to the management mode by typing your password and pressing Enter twice. Select Restore database using the arrow keys and then press Enter.
|
Upload the backup file you want to restore to the following directory using Webmin File manager: •CentOS: /root •Rocky Linux: /opt/appliance/conf The target file will be overwritten. Skip this step if you want to restore the backup file that is already in the same location. |
|
Do not mix backups from different servers and different server versions. Use only the file that was backed up on this same ESET PROTECT VA. You can restore database to a different ESET PROTECT VA, only if it has been freshly deployed and before its configuration. |
2.You will be prompted to Enter database root password at the beginning of database restore process. If you are restoring database on a freshly deployed ESET PROTECT VA which has not been configured yet, you will not be prompted to type the password.
This process can take from a few seconds to a few hours depending on the size of your database.
|
Always check the screen for errors. If there are error messages, the database restore cannot be considered successfully completed. Try running Restore database again. |
