Echelon IzoT Commissioning Tool - Manual (Page 227)

• Select the Backup Database check box to back up the OpenLNS network database only. Use
this option to move the network database to an OpenLNS Server computer that does not have
IzoT Commissioning Tool installed.
• Select the Backup NodeBuilder Project check box to back up the NodeBuilder project
associated with the IzoT Commissioning Tool network, if there is one. This option is only
available if you are using the NodeBuilder Development Tool.
3. If you are backing up the OpenLNS CT drawing, select which drawing files to back up under the
Drawing Files to Backup box.
• Select Backup Visio (*.vs*) Files only to back up only the Visio files in the drawing
directory.
• Select Backup all Files in the Drawing Directory to backup all the files in the drawing
directory. This may include HMI projects and documentation. You can also include the
plug-ins used by the network by copying them to the drawing directory.
4. To create a hot backup, or to include or exclude the Import and Types folders in the backup file,
click Options. The IzoT Commissioning Tool Backup/Restore Options dialog opens.
a. To enable hot backups, select the Use OpenLNS Hot Backup check box under Backup
Options. If you select this check box, IzoT Commissioning Tool creates a hot backup of the
network database if an application is accessing the OpenLNS network database when you
attempt to back up the network. Creating a hot backup prevents remote clients or other
OpenLNS applications accessing the network database from being disrupted. If you clear this
check box, you can still create a hot backup (see step 6 for more information)
b. Select or clear the Backup Import Folder check box to include or exclude the Import folder
(includes XIF and .APB files) in the backup file, and select or clear the Backup Types
Folder check box to include or exclude the Types folder (includes L
ON M ARK resource files).
Tip: You can set whether the options for using OpenLNS hot backups and backing up the Import
and Types folders are enabled by default in the Network Properties: Backup/Restore options
category (see Appendix A for more information on setting these options).
5. To change the default backup file name, click Browse and navigate to a different directory and
enter the file name, or enter the file name in the Backup File field. The default backup directory
is C:\Users\Public\Documents\LonWorks\OpenLnsCt\Backup\<IzoT Commissioning Tool
network>. The default backup file depends on the which components you included in the backup
file:
