Restore

This page explains how to restore your SyncNow environment from a backup.

SyncNow data is primarily stored in the database, with some configuration settings located in the SyncNow installation directory.

🔄 Restore Steps

  1. Restore the SyncNow Installation Directory
    Retrieve the SyncNow installation directory from your backup. This directory contains configuration files and operational settings.

  2. Restore the Database
    Restore your database (PostgreSQL, SQL Server, or SQLite) from its most recent backup.

    The database contains all synchronization information, including entity and attachment pair mappings.

Important:
The SyncNow database stores synchronization information, including entity and attachment pair mappings. If a pair is lost, new duplicate entities may be created at the target system during the first update of the source entity.

📝 Best Practices

  • Always restore both the installation directory and the database to ensure a complete and consistent environment.
  • Test your restore process periodically to verify backup integrity and disaster recovery readiness.

By following these steps, you can quickly recover your SyncNow environment and minimize downtime in the event of data loss or system failure.
