How can I backup my data within the Commit system?

Top  Previous  Next

When using the Commit system, users can perform a partial backup, which backs up the Commit database only, or a full backup, which saves the entire Commit system.

 

Commit comes with a special utility to back up the Commit databases (providing a partial-backup which saves the the database only). To access this backup utility, go to Tools > Backup menu, and follow the steps. This process will back up the database files that are located in the <server>\Commit\Db and <server>\Commit\DbSys folders.

 
Note: This backup creates a zip file in the <server>\Commit\Utils folder that contains Commit-specific files only. It does not back up your linked documents, which should be backed up separately.

We also recommend that users occasionally perform a full backup, which saves the entire Commit server folder and all its subfolders. This type of backup must be done using external tools. A full backup will enable you to restore the files much faster should you need to do so in an emergency situation.

It is recommended to copy the backup file to another hard disk, computer, or media.
