1 Shut down the ExtremeWare Enterprise Manager following the instructions in
Chapter 3, in the section “Shutting Down the Enterprise Manager Server
Components” for your operating system environment.
2 Move or delete the old copy of
basecamp.db found in the Enterprise Manager
installation directory.
3 Copy the backup copy of
basecamp.db to the Enterprise Manager installation
directory.
4 Restart the Enterprise Manager following the instructions in Chapter 3 for your
operating system environment.
