How to properly restore nssdb and nssadapterdb

Greetings!

I would like to now the correct step-by-step procedure to restore nssdb and nssadapterdb for minimum downtime of the whole self service portal

If for example I backed up 2 of these db's and want to restore, should I do the restore on real databases (replacing them) or maybe I should restore these 2 in the exact instance with different names and somehow attach these db's to the working webserver or there is some other ways to do it?

 

  • Hi Alexander,

    Restoring  the database can be done in either method, though an overwrite requires the least effort. If you restore to a new name, you'll need to re-run the installation to point at the new database (or edit the multitude config files manually (We recommend doing the former)).

    Regards,
