Restoring is interrupted

Restoring an application generates a recovery file that includes the directory information. After a successful restore operation, this file is deleted. However, if a restore operation is not completed - if the computer performing the operation loses power during the restore, for example - the recovery file is retained. When the

FactoryTalk View

ME Application Manager is restarted after an interrupted restore operation, a message appears advising the user that the recovery file still exists. The user is offered the option of replacing the existing

FactoryTalk Directory

with the one in the recovery file.

Recovering the directory will replace all users and groups, database definitions and security policies defined on this computer with the ones defined in the recovery file. Be sure a user name and password that will grant full access rights to the previous

FactoryTalk Directory

are available.
