Execute the restoresystemdb command

Restores the central system database that contains data such as ARIS method extensions, filters, model templates, and scripts from a previously saved system database (ADB file) <archive>. You can also update the system database using the updatesystemdb command.

Prerequisites

  • ARIS Server Administrator is installed.

  • You know the credentials of the superuser, or you have the Server administrator function privilege.

  • You have access to the backup file (<archive>)

Procedure. Procedure
  1. Click Start > Programs > ARIS > Administration > ARIS Server Administrator 10 if you accepted the program group suggested by the installation program. Under a Linux operating system, execute the arisadm.sh shell script instead. To do so, enter: su -c arisadm.sh aris10. The command prompt opens and ARIS Server Administrator is launched in interactive mode.

  2. Establish a connection to the ARIS server and tenant:

    Syntax: server < ARIS server name>:<port number> <tenant> <user name> <password>

    Example: server arissrv:1080 default system manager or server arissrv:443 default system manager -ssl

  3. Enter restoresystemdb <archive>.

The system configuration, managing, for example, report scripts, macros, semantic checks, filters and templates, of this tenant will be restored.
