If you need to restore the system due to a system crash or if you move the system from one server to another, then there are two things you need to restore:

 

1. 3f Project 2006 database

2. All the files uploaded to 3f Project 2006

 

Assuming that you have done regular updates to the system, and that you have remembered to backup both the database and the files uploaded to the system, then this should not be a problem. In this example, we used the built-in file backup tool that comes with  Windows 2003 Server to restore the files. 

 

1. Start 3f Project 2006 database utility

 

 

 

2. Enter password

Enter your system administrator password (SA), then press "Next". By default, the system administrator password is 123 unless you have changed it.

 

3. Choose Procedure

Choose "Restore Database" from the combo box, then enter the restore key and location where the backup file is located. When you are ready, click the button "Restore Database" to begin the process of restoring the backup. 

 

 

When the database has been successfully restored, the system displays a message box.  

 

 

 

5. Restore files (Using Microsoft Backup)

After you have restored your database, you should restore your files. Open Microsoft Backup and choose the media to restore. When ready click the Start Restore button.

 

 

6. Restore Complete

When the files have been restored, this window will appear. Click "Close".
