Restore

arrow1_rotationRestored Data arrow1_rotationAutomation Server Replacement Using Restore arrow1_rotationDuplicate Automation Server Using Restore

Restore is the process of restoring data to an original or former state. Using Restore, you can revert to a previous snapshot of the EcoStruxure BMS server data despite any configuration changes made since the last backup. In the EcoStruxure BMS, Restore is a manual process designed to avoid the accidental overwriting of current EcoStruxure BMS server data.

Restored Data

Depending on what is contained in the backup file, you can restore different types of data.

  • Configuration only : the EcoStruxure Building Operation software restores the configuration database and custom object type data. Any existing historical data is lost when you select this option.

  • All data : the EcoStruxure Building Operation software restores the configuration, historical, and custom object types data.

For more information, see Restored Data .

Automation Server Replacement Using Restore

Backup and Restore helps assure that automation server data can be restored to a replacement automation server in the event of detected failure, or to the same automation server in the event of data loss. As a precaution, you back up your automation servers regularly so that you can use the most current backup to restore the automation server data to a replacement automation server. You also configure the new automation server to match the name and the network settings of the replaced automation server so the system can identify this automation server when online.

For more information, see Automation Server Replacement Using Restore .

Duplicate Automation Server Using Restore

You can use the Restore function to re-use the configuration data from a backup set in a new standalone automation server. Rather than manually configuring your preferred automation server configuration, you can save time and configure the standalone automation server from a backup set.

The backup set used can originate from an automation server that is or has been part of a multi-server configuration.
