IPAM Backup and Restore

 

Applies To: Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012

This topic provides instructions for a performing backup and restore of an IPAM server, using Windows Server Backup tools in Windows Server® 2012. You can use the steps in this topic to:

  1. Configure a regularly scheduled backup of IPAM data.

  2. Recover the IPAM database on an IPAM server.

Requirements for using Windows Server Backup

Windows Server Backup is available on all editions of Windows Server 2012. However, the Windows Server Backup snap-in is not available when you use the Server Core installation option. To run backups for computers with a Server Core installation, you must use the command line or manage backups remotely from another computer that is running a full installation of Windows Server 2012. For more information, see Windows Server Backup Cmdlets in Windows PowerShell (https://technet.microsoft.com/library/ee706683.aspx).

If Windows Server Backup feature is not installed on your system, you can install the feature as described in Install Windows Server Backup Tools (https://technet.microsoft.com/library/cc732081.aspx).

Membership in the Administrators group or Backup Operators group, or equivalent, is the minimum required to complete this procedure. Review details about using the appropriate accounts and group memberships at Local and Domain Default Groups (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=83477).

Backup and restore IPAM

Important

If the version of IPAM changes or patches are installed between backup and restore procedures, you may need to convert the database schema to higher version so that it is compatible.

The following procedures assume that a network share is available on another server (for example: \\MyBackupSrv\ipambackup) to store IPAM backup data.

To create a scheduled backup

  1. On the IPAM server, open Administrative Tools and then click Windows Server Backup.

  2. In the navigation pane, right-click Local Backup and then click Backup Schedule.

    Tip

    Choosing Backup Schedule does not create a backup immediately. After using Backup Schedule to create a regularly scheduled backup, you can also choose to create a backup immediately with the Backup Once option.

  3. In the Backup Schedule Wizard, click Next.

  4. On the Select Backup Configuration page, choose Custom and then click Next.

  5. On the Select Items for Backup page, click Add Items.

  6. In Select Items, browse to Windows\System32\ipam\Database and select ipam.mdf and ipam_log.ldf.

  7. Click OK and then click Next.

  8. On the Specify Backup Time page, choose when and how often to perform a backup of the IPAM database, and then click Next.

  9. On the Specify Destination Type page, choose a location to store backup files and then click Next. In this example, a shared network folder is used. If you choose another option, you must have a hard disk available to store files that does not contain operating system or application files.

  10. If you chose to backup files to a network share, click OK in the notification dialog box.

  11. Type a location for the network share under Location (for example: \\MyBackupSrv\ipambackup) and then click Next.

  12. In the Windows Security dialog box, provide credentials that have permission to write to the network share and then click OK.

  13. On the Confirmation page, click Finish.

  14. Verify that You have successfully created the backup schedule is displayed, and then click Close.

To restore from a backup

  1. Temporarily stop the Windows Internal Database service on the IPAM server by typing services.msc in an elevated command prompt, pressing ENTER, right-clicking Windows Internal Database, and then clicking Stop.

    Leave the Services console open so that you can start the Windows Internal Database service again after the IPAM database has been restored from backup.

  2. On the IPAM server, open Administrative Tools and then click Windows Server Backup.

  3. Right-click Local Backup and then click Recover.

  4. On the Getting Started page, choose the location where a backup is stored. In this example, a backup is stored on a network share so A backup stored on another location is chosen. Click Next to continue.

  5. On the Specify Location Type page, choose Remote shared folder. Choose Local drives only if your backup was not stored remotely as shown in this example. Click Next to continue.

  6. On the Specify Remote Folder page, type the location of your network share (for example: \\MyBackupSrv\ipambackup) and then click Next.

  7. On the Select Backup Date page, choose a date to use for the restore point of the IPAM database and then click Next.

  8. On the Select Recovery Type page, choose Files and folders and then click Next.

  9. Browse to Windows\System32\ipam\Database, click the Database folder, and then select both of the available files: ipam.mdf and ipam_log.ldf. Click Next to continue.

  10. On the Specify Recovery Options page, click Browse, browse to the Windows\System32\ipam\Database folder, and click OK

  11. Under When the wizard find items… choose Overwrite the existing versions with the recovered versions, ensure that the Restore access control… checkbox is selected, and then click Next.

  12. On the Confirmation page, click Recover.

  13. Verify that Completed is displayed next to Status, and then click Close.

  14. In the Services console, right-click Windows Internal Database, and then click Start.

Tip

If the Windows Internal Database service fails to start, or IPAM is not able to connect to the database after a restore operation, you can review the error log file at %SystemRoot%\WID\Log.
