Restore

The Restore page schedules a restore of one or more local user accounts to a single target machine ID. Initially, you select the source machine you want to restore from.

To display on this page:

  • Both source and target machines must have the KUSM client installed using User State > Install/Remove.
  • A source machine must have previously stored its settings and local user account information using User State > Backup.

Once the source machine is selected, you are provided with the following actions:

  • Show/Hide Scheduler - Show or hide the following schedule options:
    • Date/Time - Enter the year, month, day, hour, and minute to schedule this task.
    • Stagger by N mins. - You can distribute the load on your network by staggering this task. If you set this parameter to 5 minutes, then the scan on each machine ID is staggered by 5 minutes. For example, machine 1 runs at 10:00, machine 2 runs at 10:05, machine 3 runs at 10:10, ...
    • Skip if the machine is offline - Check to perform this task only at the scheduled time. If the machine is offline, skip and reschedule for the next day at the same time. Uncheck to perform this task as soon as the machine connects after the scheduled time.
  • Restore Now - Restore a selected machine ID immediately.
  • Remove Schedule - Remove a scheduled restore from a selected machine ID.
  • Save Schedule - Apply schedule options to a selected machine ID.
  • Select a different source machine - Change the machine you want to restore.
  • Edit Settings to Apply - Edit the Stored Settings for local user accounts, system settings or application settings to be restored. These changes apply only to the current restore, not to the source backup files.
