====Restore or migrate a smeserver====
If you simply want to restore a few files or a whole directory you just have to use the web interface, and within a few clicks you are done, with your files restored directly in place, or aside if you want.
This will cover the opportunity to use this full or almost full backup to use the restoration option while installing a new manager, which will help you to migrate between versions.
* change '''SERVERNAME''' with the actual name of your backup
* change '''-n 0''' with the number of the most uptodate fullbackup you want to use.
su - backuppc -s /bin/sh
cd ~
mkdir myrestore
cd myrestore/
/usr/share/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_tarCreate -h SERVERNAME -n 0 -s / / >smeserver.tar
then you have just to copy this on a USB disk, or alternatively copy it in a virtual disk if your SME will be virtualized and can not plug any USB device
mkdir /mnt/MyDisk
mount /dev/disk/by-label/MyDisk /mnt/MyDisk
mv /var/lib/BackupPC/myrestore/smeserver.tar /mnt/MyDisk/
umount /mnt/MyDisk/
# install SME server
# reboot
# plug your drive when you see the screen asking for restoration
and you are done.
