application database. You can use the export option to backup the data in your
RMS application database.
3. Convert RMS Database
Select this option to convert the currently configured database to an alternate

on the Microsoft SQL Server, migrating the data from the existing database to the
new database, and re-configuring the RMS application's connection settings to
use this new database.
4. Apply RMS Update Script.
Select this option if you have a database update script that you need to apply to
your database. Database update scripts are created by AMX to provide a means
of updating the existing database in place.

The export function of the Database Wizard should not be used as a
replacement for standard network and systems backup procedures
typically performed by an IT department, but rather in addition to
standard backup procedures. The export function creates a snapshot
of the data contents in the RMS database, but does not backup the
database file nor the database server.
