Backing Up the Database
Backing Up the Database
When you are using the+ RTU in stand-alone mode, you must perform
backups of the database for additional security in case of a major system
failure.
Note: When the RTU is used with the EMS server, there is no need for manual
backups, because the system configuration is copied on the EMS server.
Depending on the database size, the backup process can take from a few
seconds to a about 10 minutes.
The backup file includes all the database entries, such as:

Optical routes, test setups, test programs

Custom thresholds

Default values

Results
The application names the backup files as follows:
You can find the backup file in the D:\DatabaseBackup folder, on your RTU.
Note: Only the most recent backup is kept.
If you ever need to recover the database, contact EXFO (see Contacting the
Technical Support Group on page 235).
