Overview
You want to restore the previous backup of the GFI LanGuard database.
Solution
To restore the previously backed up database, we recommend using the SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS).
It is important to make sure that the flow of data is stopped first. Close GFI LanGuard and stop all GFI LanGuard services.
- If you want to restore a database to the SQL server where the database with the same name already exists (by default, LNSSScanresults 12), detach the existing database first following the corresponding steps from this article and store it in a safe place in case you need to revert the operation.
- Restore a database backup using SSMS.
Testing
Launch the LanGuard console and verify that all the agents and previous computers were restored on the Dashboard. If there are issues, contact GFI LanGuard Support.
