ProcedureTo Restore a Calendar From a File

  1. Log in as the database owner (icsuser).

  2. To restore a specific calendar that was saved to a backup file using the csbackup utility, use the csrestore utility calendar command with the -c option.

    The filename extension (.ics or .xml) of the backup file indicates the format in which the calendar was saved.

    For example, to restore the calendar jsmithcal that was saved in iCalendar (text/calendar MIME) format to the file jsmith.ics located in the backupdir directory:


    csrestore -c jsmithcal calendar backupdir/jsmith.ics

    Or, to restore the calendar jsmithcal that was saved in XML (text/calendar MIME) format to the file jsmith.xml located in the bcakupdir directory:


    csrestore -c jsmithcal calendar backupdir/jsmith.xml
