Backup Recommendations

To ensure that ManagementStudio can be fully restored in the event of a system failure, configure regular backups as follows:

Daily Backup Requirements

  • SQL Database:
    Perform daily backups of the ManagementStudio SQL database.

  • IIS Web Folder:
    Create daily backups of the ManagementStudio IIS web folder on the IIS server.

  • File Storage Folder:
    Back up the ManagementStudio file storage folder daily.
    The file storage folder path can be found in the appsettings.json file located in the IIS web folder.

  • SSL Certificates:
    Back up any SSL certificates in use, in case the IIS server requires rebuilding.
