The course-level backup and restore
We will first have a look at the backup procedure before going into the details of how to recover data during the restore operation. Course backup is a four-step process:
The course backup
To back up an individual course, it is best if you are inside that course, where you have to select the Backup link in the Course administration section. The backup procedure comprises a number of steps, which are described in the sequel. You can navigate backward to any step via the process links at the top of the screen or using the navigation buttons at the bottom.
Initial settings
There are a number of settings that dictate how the backup will be performed and what type of information will be included.
Some settings are only available if other settings have been activated. This is described in the following table:
