Restore the configuration with command-line operations

Use command-line parameters to restore the configuration from a BAK file without interacting with the user interface.
TIP:
  • Close
    FactoryTalk Action Manager
     before restoring the configuration with command-line operations.
  • Restoring a configuration will overwrite the existing configuration in the user interface.
  • If a specified value includes a space, you must enclose the value in quotation marks (for example, "value with spaces").
To restore the configuration with command-line parameters
  1. Open the
    Windows Command Prompt
     window.
  2. Use commands to specify the restore parameters, each of which are separated by space.
    1. Navigate to the directory of the Config Backup Restore Tool, and then press
      Enter
      .
      cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Rockwell Software\FactoryTalk Action Manager"
    2. Specify the use of the Config Backup Restore Tool.
      FactoryTalkActionManager_Config_Backup_Restore_Tool.exe
    3. Specify the restore command.
      --restore
    4. Specify the path and name of the BAK file.
      For example,
      "C:\Users\admin\Documents\FTAM_Config.bak"
    This is an example of the complete command lines.
  3. Press
    Enter
    .
