    Hi Mohit,

    When i clicked on the link in LCS DB backup..it was .bak so does it make a difference?

    And the link says UAT so is it still the same steps

    Yes, .bak is easy and takes less time. You can restore it directly on AxDB.

    support.solarwinds.com/.../Back-up-and-restore-SQL-database-instance-using-a-BAK-file

    You can take backup of your AxDB before restoring .bak from LCS.

    To restore .bak file, follow these steps (Make sure to stop Visual studio, DMF, Batch , Management reporter and SSRS services before importing .bak file else you will get Database in use error)

    1) Right on AxDB-->Tasks-->Restore-->Database
    2) Click on Device and Add .bak file
    3) In Options, check mark Overwrite the existing Database option.
    Check mark Close existing connection to destination database.
    
    4) Click ok to restore.

    Hi Mohit,

    After the restore finishes..shall i do a full build and sync or just building my model with sync is enough?

    Database sync is enough as code is not changed during db restore.

    Can you please reply the 3 steps in your previous reply.

    As it seems after the new version of the community, it's not appearing properly
