2. Open another instance of Windows Explorer, and then paste the backed-up HMI

project and application files into the same location on Server #1.

On Server #1, restore the HMI project and application

Before restoring Server #1 to its original role as the FactoryTalk Network Directory and
primary server, restore the migrated HMI project and application files on Server #1.

To restore the HMI project files

1. On Server #1, open the HMI Server Backup and Restore utility. Click Start > All

Programs > Rockwell Software > FactoryTalk View > Tools > HMI Backup
and Restore
. For details about using the utility, click the Help button.

2. To restore the HMI project files copied from Server #2, follow the instructions in the

wizard.

To restore the application files

1. On Server #1, click Start > All Programs > Rockwell Software, and then click

FactoryTalk Administration Console.

2. Select Network, and then click OK.

3. In the Explorer window, right-click Network (THIS COMPUTER), and then click

Restore.

4. Type the path to the application archive’s location, or click the Browse button to find

and select the archive, and then click Next.

5. In this upgrade example, because System information was included when the

application was backed up (see page 124), Application and System should be
displayed in the field, Archive Type.

For this example, select the check box Restore System, and then click OK.

Application archive files have a .bak extension. The default location for application files is:

C:\Users\Public\Documents

(Windows XP and Windows Server 2003) C:\Documents and Settings\All
Users\Documents

When restoring your application, keep in mind that if you select the check box Restore
System, and there are applications using the FactoryTalk Network Directory on the computer,
the restore operation will replace user and computer accounts in all applications.
