Restoring a Forest

You can restore a forest from a backup.

To restore a forest from a backup, follow these steps:

Warning

Before following this procedure on the Windows platform, ensure that users do not have forests, directories, or any subdirectories, open.

  1. Click Forests in the left tree menu. A list of forests appears.

  2. Click your target forest.

  3. Click the Backup/Restore tab.

  4. Enter the name of the directory that contains the backup copy of the forest.

  5. Click Restore.

  6. Click OK.

    A confirmation message displays.

  7. Confirm that you want to restore data from this backup directory and click OK.

Restoring data from your backup is a “hot” admin task; the changes take effect immediately.
