WhWhat do I need to do to back up IQmfp?

It is recommended using a third party backup utility such as Symantec’s Backup Exec software and backing up the following:

1. The IQmfp images directory (default location is C:/Program Files/Informa Software/ImageQuest/Images).
   NOTE: To verify the location of your IQmfp images directory, open IQadministrator and select “Manage File Storage” for the Storage location.
2. The IQmfp SQL database including the full text catalog. Keep in mind that the SQL database files will be in use and the SQL services must be stopped if you intend to backup the raw SQL files.
   NOTE: The SQL server could be the IQ server or a separate server on the network.
3. The IQmfp WebServices directory (C:/Program Files/Informa Software/ImageQuest/WebServices).
