Restoring a Backup

Use this procedure to restore a backup you made while starting the software update. If you are not restoring a backup, skip this section and proceed to Completing the Update.

You can restore a backup if you selected the Backup check box on the Software Update Environment Selection panel, as described previously.

To restore a backup:

From the System Installation Tools menu (GH9612), select Application Software Update, or Electronic Software Update. The Work with Software Updates panel appears.

1. Select the software update for which you want to restore the backup.

2. Click Next. The Software Update Environment Selection panel appears.

3. Select the environment for which you want to restore the backup.

4. On the Row Exit menu, click Restore Backup. The backup is restored.

   This may take several minutes.

5. Click Cancel to close the Software Update Environment Selection panel.

   Note: The restore process doesn't remove objects that were added through the software update. If you wish to remove the added objects, use the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Object Management Workbench (OMW) project created by the software update. A list of added objects can be found in the software update spec merge report.If you are restoring objects for a software update that you have already transferred to other path codes, make sure you re-transfer the restored specs to the other path codes using OMW. If you wish to remove the added objects in all path codes, use the OMW project created by the software update.
