Applications

This is a useful disaster recovering feature. When upgrading IPBrick from version A to version B, if an old installation is detected, the following applications will be backed up:

• PostgreSQL: All the Postgres databases will be dumped, including the sites databases;
• Mail: The emails that were in the queue will be saved;
• Kaspersky: All the Kaspersky applications statistics will be saved;
• VoIP: It will save all the VoIP statistics;
• IM: The Instant Messaging data and configuration will be saved.

So, all these application files are packed and saved in a folder.

Choosing the option Applications - Restore the list of available application data backups will be shown (Figure 7.44). To restore the desired application data backup, click on the file and then on Restore. At this moment the backup will be restored for the new IPBrick version (Figure 7.45).
