[edit] Overview
Most of the data is stored in the database. There are some files that contain data. In a disaster-recovery or migration scenario, the application can be reinstalled and the files copied back in.
[edit] Database
[edit] SQL Compact (Embedded) Database
This database is the file aw_db.sdf, located here (default install location):
64-Bit Systems:
C:\Program Files (x86)\AuditWizard v8\db\
32-Bit Systems:
C:\Program Files\AuditWizard v8\db\
If you have installed AuditWizard in a different location, you can find the exact location of the database by going to Administration > General > Database Administration and reviewing the path in the Change Database section.
To back it up, simply copy it elsewhere.
[edit] SQL Server
A full version of SQL Server provides an automated backup option. Use the standard procedure in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio.
[edit] SQL Server Express
The Express version of SQL Server does not provide an automated backup feature, so schedule a recurring task in a task-management system to back up manually. Use the standard procedure in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio.
[edit] Files
The following folders contain data. Back up the whole folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\AuditWizard v8\AuditAgent C:\Program Files (x86)\AuditWizard v8\Scanners C:\Program Files (x86)\AuditWizard v8\Icons C:\Program Files (x86)\AuditWizard v8\Reports\custom_reports
The following file contains data. Back up just this file:
