Installation manual

9.2.4 Database Backup

This tool allows you to create a backup file of the database. The settings in the first window are similar to those in the

database conversion (see chapter Database Transfer ); in this window the source database is selected. The source

database will be copied to a backup file specified in the next step.

Optional parameters in the lower part of the window enable you to overwrite the existing file (Overwrite if exists) as well

as to stop ESET Remote Administrator Server during the backup process (Stop server during processing task). Click Next

to confirm the task execution.

9.2.5 Database Restore

This task allows you to restore the database from a backup file. The settings in the first window are similar to those in the

database conversion (see chapter Database Transfer ); in this window the database type is selected.

For all database types besides MS Access database select whether to create the database tables automatically (Create

tables in the database automatically) or insert the tables into the database later (View Script > Save to File) in the

next step. For an MS SQL database the Create a new database ESETRADB automatically option automatically creates

a new MySQL database named ESETRADB. The final step is to confirm the database conversion.

Select the file from which the database is to be restored in the next step. Optional parameters in the lower part of the

window enable you to import a file from a different database type as selected in the previous step (Allow import from a

different type of database) as well as to stop ESET Remote Administrator Server during database restore (Stop server

during processing task). Click Next to confirm the task execution.

9.2.6 Delete Tables

This deletes the current tables in the database. As a result, the database will return to the state from right after ERA Server

installation. The settings in the first window are similar to those in the database conversion (see chapter Database Transfer

); in this window the database type is selected. In the next step you will be prompted to confirm the action. Select Yes,

I agree and then click Next to confirm the action.

NOTE: If an MS SQL, My SQL or Oracle database is used, we recommend that you stop ERA Server before deleting the

tables.

If an MS Access database is used, it will be replaced with the default empty database.

9.2.7 Install New License Key

To insert a new license key to be used by the server enter the location of the new license key.

Overwrite the existing license key if required (Overwrite if exists) and restart the server if required (Force server start (in

case it is not running)). Click Next to confirm and complete the action.

9.2.8 Modify server configuration

allows you to edit advanced ERA Server settings. These settings are also accessible via Tools > Server Options >

Advanced > Edit Advanced Settings.

Note: In order for this feature to work, ERA Console must be installed.
