WSUS Windows Internal Database

Post by Bitman »

HI All,

Quick question: Is this possible to restore WSUS Windows Internal Database from a restore point using veeam ? I don't see the WID instance in veeam Explorer for SQL...If yes, how can I restore the DB ?

Thanks

Easiest (but hated by DBAs) - stop WID service, move back files from backup, check that permissions are correct and start WID.
Location of files (by heart, didn't check): C:\Windows\WID\DATA
Files: SUS.mdf, SUS.ldf

Sorry for late reply, just got back from vacation this morning and saw your post. That's what I ended up doing, and it worked.
Thanks for taking the time to reply.
