The command usage is described below:

  • Backup:

    By default, the backup will be created in the archives directory located in BYODAPP BYODAPP Security setup folder. However, the backup may be saved in a specified folder. Relative and absolute paths are allowed.

  • Restore:
    admintool.exe /restore [path to a backup directory]
    The specified backup directory must contain a data and a settings folder, as created by the /backup command.
