Restore the information base from a backup copy

It is impossible to restore from a backup to the original information base, you need to create a new information base and upload the backup to it.

Data for connections to the new information base will be different. To keep the same data for connection, you can test the functionality of the backup on a test information base, and then delete the original information base and create a new one with the same name.

The 1C server cluster on which the information base is restored will be partially or completely unavailable during the restoration process. This depends on the type of backup, the type can be viewed in the control panels: from the top menu, press Products → Cloud for 1C → section Information bases → base page → tab Backups — column Type:

  • file .dt — the cluster will be available during the recovery process, but its performance may be degraded and the cluster information bases may be unavailable. At the end of the recovery process, the cluster will automatically reboot and all sessions will be terminated;
  • PostgreSQL backup — the cluster and all its information bases will be stopped for the entire recovery process.

You can back up of the right kind.
