Provided by: gnumed-server_21.15-1_all bug

NAME

       gm-restore_database_from_archive - restoring a GNUmed database

SYNOPSIS

       gm-restore_database_from_archive <backup>

       <backup>: a database backup file ("backup-gnumed_vX-*.tar.bz2") created by gm-backup

DESCRIPTION

       The  gm-restore_database_from_archive  script  attempts  to  recreate  from  scratch the backed up GNUmed
       database. It tries to be very conservative. It is intended for interactive use by root and may have to be
       adjusted to your needs.

KNOWN PROBLEMS

       Note that for some reason restoring does not work when the backup file you intend to restore is a link to
       the actual backup. Use the full path instead.
