10.3.6 Restoring the database in an Embedded RDB environment

In an Embedded RDB environment, you use the Database Manager of Asset Information Manager Subset to restore an Asset Information Manager Subset database that was created.

Notes
  • Before you restore the Asset Information Manager Subset database, stop the services in the following order.
    1. World Wide Web Publishing Service or World Wide Web Publishing
    2. Commands and tasks of the Asset Information Synchronous Service and Asset Information Manager Subset
    3. JP1/Client Security Control - Manager (applicable if JP1/CSC is linked)
    To use Asset Information Manager Subset after you have used the Database Manager, start the services in the reverse order from that listed above.
  • If a connection pool has been set up in the ODBC database, the connected status will not change from the time that the Asset Information Manager Subset job was stopped until the timeout time set in the connection pool elapses. Therefore, wait for the connected status to change before restoring the database.

To restore the Asset Information Manager Subset database:

  1. In the Database Manager dialog box, choose Restore Embedded RDB and then click the Next button.
    The Restore Embedded RDB dialog box appears.
    In this dialog box, specify the name of the Asset Information Manager Subset database backup file.

    Backup file name
    Specifies the absolute path name for the backup file that was specified when the Asset Information Manager Subset database was backed up.
    The default is JP1/Software-Distribution-Manager-installation-folder\jp1asset\db\backup.dat. To change the default file path, click the ... button and then specify a desired file path.
    Note that if the storage location of the backup file that was specified when the Asset Information Manager Subset database was backed up has changed, the Asset Information Manager Subset database cannot be restored. Change the backup file storage to the initial location and then specify Backup file name.
    Comment
    Displays the comment that was specified as log information during backup processing.
    Logs
    Displays a maximum of 10 entries of backup log information in chronological order.
    Selecting an item in the log list applies the information to Backup file name and Comment.
  2. Set the items and then click the Execute button.
    The backup files are restored and the Asset Information Manager Subset database is recovered.
