Accessed via this tab, the user has the ability to perform a full DME backup(Backup ), as well as Flashback (Flashback ) or Recovery(Recovery), depending on what license was purchased.

 

For the Flashback or Recovery, the user can “Restore From a File” or “Restore Internal”.

  • The “Restore From File” button requests a user to provide a file that will be used to restore from. The input file is checked for accuracy and consistency, to avoid any chance of writing wrong data to DME. After a successful check, a restore process is started automatically.

  • The “Restore Internal” button starts the restore process using an internally saved image that was saved at the time of the FIRST original backup performed.

Depending on the seeting selected in (Tab 5: System Settings | Writing Mode ), the flashback process can take anywhere from 10 seconds to 5 minutes.
