To recover Administration Server data in interactive mode:

  1. Run the klbackup utility located in the Kaspersky Security Center installation folder. Start the utility under the same account that you used to install Administration Server.

    The Backup and Restore Wizard starts.

  2. In the first window of the Wizard, select Restore Administration Server data.

    If you select the Restore or back up Administration Server certificate only option, the Administration Server certificate will only be recovered.

    Click Next.

  3. In the Restore settings window of the Wizard:
    • Specify the folder that contains a backup copy of Administration Server data.

      If you are working in a cloud environment such as AWS or Azure, specify the address of the storage. Also, make sure that the file is named backup.zip.

    • Specify the password that was entered during data backup.

      When restoring data, you must specify the same password that was entered during backup. If the path to a shared folder changed after backup, check the operation of tasks that use restored data (restore tasks and remote installation tasks). If necessary, edit the settings of these tasks. While data is being restored from a backup file, no one must access the shared folder of Administration Server. The account under which the klbackup utility is started must have full access to the shared folder.

  4. Click the Next button to restore data.
