Restore an infobase from a backup

It is not possible to restore from a backup to the original infobase. You must create a new infobase and load the backup into it.

Connection details for the new infobase will be different. To keep the existing connection details, you can verify the backup on a test infobase, then delete the original infobase and create a new one with the same name.

The 1C server cluster where the infobase is being restored will remain available during the restoration process, but its performance may decrease, and other infobases in the cluster might become unreachable. The infobase being restored from a backup will be unavailable to users until the operation is complete.

You can create a backup of the required type.

Restore an infobase from a backup

  1. Optional: set a session lock.
  2. Create a test infobase.

1. Optional: set a session lock

You can schedule maintenance time and set a session lock for all infobases of the 1C server cluster where the infobase will be restored. When the session lock is enabled for an infobase, active users of the database will be prompted to save their data, and their sessions will be terminated.
