Backup and Recovery (Recycle Bin)
1. Sizable empty DB for back up content 2. Empty folder on a server/NAS/SAN with plenty of disk space
3. SMTP server properties for Email notifications 4. Schedule backup jobs
• Small BO installations – on a root level • Large BO installations – several jobs (universes, users, reports)
5. Run every day
Backup and Recovery (Recycle Bin)
Backup and Recovery (Recycle Bin)How to recover a deleted report
1. Select “Objects” Tab and click on the Recycle Icon

Backup and Recovery (Recycle Bin)Search options
Backup and Recovery (Recycle Bin)3. Deleted report if found in the recovery DB (if it was part of a back up job that run before it was deleted)
4. Import the report back to PROD
Multiple BO installations comparison
Ability to log into more than one BO environment for side to side comparison and content transfer
Content transfer – drag and drop
Benefits
• Much better understanding of our BO environment
• Easier and more intelligent clean up process
• Immediate access to Audit data
• Recycle Bin
Challenges• Initial 360 job run time (next runs are incremental)
• Few not very intuitive options (document retrieval, content transfer)
• Make time to read install and user manuals
