Re: Backup & Restore v.5.4.12.11

Jump to solution

Hi,

Good question.

In most cases you could install a newer versions of the XWS software using a database that had a older version installed. The software take that into consideration when you install it. 

This may not work if you point to a  XPMMS 4.x or earlier database.

Thanks,

Yes, I saw that in the upgrade instructions. So the backup of the database would only be usable if you had to re-install the origional version for some reason? There is no way to restore the data from the 5.4 database backup to the 5.6 version? Thanks

Hi,

Important: For Xerox® Workplace Suite software installations that started at version 5.1 and
higher:

• The Backup and Restore feature is not available.
• Because new installations use an SQL Express 2014/2017 database.


To manage the SQL database, use the Microsoft SQL Management Studio software or a similar
tool to backup your database.

 

Thanks

XMP Admin.

Backup & Restore v.5.4.12.11

Jump to solution

I am setting up to upgrade v.5.4.12.11 and the instructions say to Backup the Current Internal Database. I do not have a Backup and Restore option under Company - Maintenance - Backup and Restore to perform this procedure. Is there something that needs to be enabled?
