Recovering a deleted folder in BOE

There are three options to recover a deleted folder depending  on what kind of backup you have done:



1. backup of the CMS database and File Store.

2. You created recently a BIAR file.

3. You have a Development/Test environment where you have this folder.

Let's see the Solution in case you have a back up of the CMS database.



Follow the steps to recover deleted folder and sub-folders:

1. Copy the CMS database from the backup to your database server and point the CMS ODBC system DSN to it.

2. Copy the backed up file store to a Temp directory.

3. Change the path of input and output file repository servers in the CMC, for each server, to the Temp file store directory.

4. You will now be able to find the reports. Copy those reports to the BusinessObjects server's local disk, or create a BIAR file using the Import Wizard.

5. Point the ODBC system DSN back to the original database, and also change the paths on input file repository and output file repository servers back to their original locations.

6. Publish the reports to Enterprise from the BusinessObjects server's local hard disk.
