<strong>ClientBase</strong> <strong>Overview</strong> for <strong>Administrators</strong><br />
Quick Steps to Backup<br />
STEP ONE:<br />
Go to Start|Programs|Trams|Backup/Restore.<br />
Other users do not have to be out of the program. When you backup <strong>ClientBase</strong>, you also backup Trams Back Office!<br />
STEP TWO:<br />
Setup the Backup Utility.<br />
From the Backup tab, select the Alias of the backup database. The <strong>Database</strong> Path listed below the alias is where your data<br />
currently resides. Backup To shows the drive, directory, and name of the backup file you are creating. Backup To files<br />
can be set to another computer on network, a CD or flash drive.<br />
STEP THREE: Run Backup.<br />
To begin the backup, click on Backup Now. You receive a message, "<strong>Database</strong> Backup in Progress" indicating that a<br />
backup file is being created. <strong>ClientBase</strong> automatically checks your files to make sure the data is in good shape. Note that<br />
this check commences any time the backup is invoked and only modified files are checked for errors.<br />
STEP FOUR:<br />
Setup Backup with a Desktop Icon<br />
To retain these settings each time you want to do a backup, click Create Shortcut. This creates a shortcut on your desktop<br />
that you can double click on each time you want to do backup.<br />
Quick Steps to Restore<br />
STEP ONE:<br />
Go to Start|Programs|Trams|Backup/Restore.<br />
In the event there is a power surge or your hard disks crashes, you may need to restore your backup data. Select the<br />
Restore Tab. The Restore function lets you recover backup data saved on disks using the Trams Backup function. Restore<br />
replaces your current data files with those on your backup diskette(s). This restore program restores both Trams Back<br />
Office and <strong>ClientBase</strong> data. Since the two programs share a common database, you cannot restore one without the other.<br />
IMPORTANT: Everyone must be out of <strong>ClientBase</strong> and Trams Back Office when restored in performed.<br />
STEP THREE: Setup Restore.<br />
Choose the correct <strong>Database</strong> Alias; type the Password for SYSDBA; choose the location of the file to be restored (the<br />
default is a:); and finally click on the Restore Now! button to begin the restore process.<br />
