Hi,

Your network administrator don't make a back-up for your database? Keeping a personal back-up its not so wise (if this is the case).

hi ferdo,

No, we need to do it by ourselves as we are the people who will be working with enovia vpm

Why don't you copy directly all your data on a separate hard disk, using OS tools? Make that area read-only...anyway, a good idea should be to have an administrator....

hi ferdo,
We cannot try to copy all individual parts each at once as it is time consuming if we try to copy all the parts all at once the systes strucks.

Make a script, run during the night.
