Restore the Directories and Data

Restore the configuration and data files from the same backup media on to the same machine that was backed up.

Follow these steps:

1. Go to Resources, Deploy, Jobs to verify that there are no active Deployment jobs in progress.
2. Stop the following services using one of the options:
   • The command-line interface:

     net stop CASMDmnSrvr
     net stop CASMDstrbnSrvr
     

   • Windows Service Control Manager:
     • CA SM Domain Server
     • CA SM Distribution Server
3. Restore the configuration and data files from the same backup media.

   Note: The restore operation gets the information back to the same state as at the time of the last backup. Any changes made after the last backup are lost.

4. If multiple manager nodes were backed up, continue to restore other manager nodes.
5. Restart the services that were stopped using one of the options:
   • The command-line interface:

     net start CASMDmnSrvr
     net start CASMDstrbnSrvr
     

   • Windows Service Control Manager.
     • CA SM Domain Server
     • CA SM Distribution Server

Note: If the backup is not performed on the manager node with the Domain Server, stop and start only the Distribution Service.
