Overview

This article provides the instructions to do a full backup recovery on Mac OS X.

Before you proceed, please ensure the following:

• The configuration data is stored at the default location: /usr/local/kerio/mailserver
  
• The store directory is located on a separate disk: /store
  
• The backup directory is stored on an external disc: /Volumes/backup

Process

1. Get the SuperUser privileges using sudo su - root
   
2. Go to the Kerio Connect installation directory: /usr/local/kerio/mailserver
   
3. Run the kmsrecover command as per the instructions below:
   
   
   • If the path to the Kerio Connect installation directory is included in the path variable, then run kmsrecover /Volumes/backup
     
   • If the path to the Kerio Connect installation directory is not included in the path variable, then run ./kmsrecover /Volumes/backup

Confirmation

The kmsrecover command detects the path to the store automatically in the Kerio Connect's configuration file and recovers all items.
