Comtech EF Data VMS v3.12.x Vipersat - Manual (Page 48)

Prepare Server for VMS Installation MN/22156, rev 12
2-8 VMS User Guide
Should the new VMS installation fail, the fall-back procedure would be to re-
install the previous version of VMS, then restore the database with the backup.
A successful installation of the new VMS will result in a new database. This
new database should immediately be backed up, and any previous database
backups should be removed from the server to avoid compatibility issues.
1. Right-click on the VMS Server icon and select Backup from the drop-down
menu (figure 2-6).
Figure 2-6 Backup Command, VMS Server
2. Enter the Name for the backup file and select the directory location for
saving the file from the Save As dialog window that opens (figure 2-7).
