The Backup command (Tools > Backup Database) is used to create a complete backup of your adTempus database, which can later be restored using the Restore command.
This tool is intended for use with the SQL Server Express database engine installed with adTempus. If you are using your own database server, you should use the backup and restore tools provided in the server's management software instead. If you use this tool with a remote database server, note that the file path you enter for the backup file will be evaluated on the database server, and must therefore be valid on that computer, not on the computer where you are running the tool.

This topic covers database backups, which are used to recover your entire adTempus database in the event of a failure. Database backups cannot be used to restore selected jobs or other objects. If you want to be able to selectively restore objects, you should use the Export tool to create a data export in addition to your regular backup. You can then use the Import tool to restore selected objects if necessary. |
