Restoring a Maximizer Database

On Sam:

1. Get a backup tape of Sam that has a known god copy of the database.

2. Untar it the appropriate folders (/u/Database/Maximizer/MxData/<AddressBook>) into /u2 (or somewhere else that has free space).

3. Close off all copies of Maximizer on all terminals

4. Rename /u/Database/Maxmizer/MxData/<AddressBook> to /u/Database/Maxmizer/MxData/<AddressBook>.bak

5. Copy backed-up Address Book data into place

6. Delete the file /u/Database/Maxmizer/MxData/<AddressBook>/~PVSW~.LOC

On Maximizer (the computer):

1. Go to Start
2. Go to Programs
3. Go to Pervasive
4. Go to Pervasive.SQL 2000i
5. Go to Utilities
6. Go to Gateway Locator

7. Set the target directory to the local directory of the address book data (C:\MaxData\AddrBks\<AddressBook>)

8. Click on Change
9. Assign the gateway to Maximizer
10. Click OK
11. Click Refresh
12. Click Exit

On a workstation:

1. Test to see if it worked. If it doesn't, check the forums on MaxTalk.com or call Maximizer.

Note: Maxmizer does not officially support Maximizer Enterprise 7.5
