How to perform an Infotrove backup and restore ----------------------------------------------- To backup --------- 1. To backup simply copy the /home/atrove/infotrove/user folder to the backup drive. A good way to perform this is via the command: tar cvfz infotrove_user.tar.gz /home/atrove/infotrove/user To restore ---------- 1. Stop the infotrove server (if it still exists) via the command /home/atrove/infotrove/install/bin/tr_stop 2. Restore the user files via the command tar xvfz infotrove_user.tar.gz And place them in the folder /home/atrove/infotrove/user Replacing any old files that currently exist in that location. 3. Either restart Infotrove or reinstall infotrove. To restart the server simply run the command /home/atrove/infotrove/install/bin/tr_start If the server installation was deleted then reinstall infotrove via the setup command from the installation file. NOTE: Make sure that the user path is correct and it should pick up that fact that you already have existing user files. The setup program will tell you if it found existing user files otherwise it will create new user files. 4. If you are reinstalling infotrove on a new machine the license will be invalid. If this is the case a screen will be displayed on your browser instructing you of the new hostid. Please send that to the helpdesk@atrove.com and the Atrove support staff will send you a new license.
