Restore the Vault from the Command Line

The restore switch requires a vault administrator account and a database administrator account, unless the default database account is still valid. The restore command does not automatically migrate data. If restoring the vault data to an upgraded vault server, migrate the data immediately after restore.

Make sure no users are connected to the vault.
Run Connectivity.ADMSConsole.exe from a command line with the following switches:

Command	Details
-Orestore	The operation being performed (required).
-Bfolder	The back up directory (required).
-VUusername	Vault administrator account user name (required).
-VPpassword	Vault administrator account password (required unless password is blank).
-DBUusername	Database account user name (required unless default configuration).
-DBPpassword	Database account password (required unless default configuration).
-Tfolder	The target database location (optional). If used with the -TL switch, this will be the target location for the MDF database file.
-TLfolder	The target database log file (LDF) location (optional).
-Ufolder	The target file store location (optional).
-INCR	Performs an incremental restore.

Note: By default, the restore command restores both components to their original locations. If the -T is not used, then the database is restored to the default location defined in the MSDE SQL installation. If the -U is not used, then the file store is restored to its original location.

Example

Connectivity.ADMSConsole.exe -Orestore -BC:\Backup -VUadministrator -VPadmin -DBUdbadmin -DBPdbpword -LC:\Vault.txt

Note: You specify the name and location of the backup from which you want to restore. Paths containing spaces must be inside of double quotes (for example, "C:\Vault Backup").
