Backups & Restore

Backups & Restore

Operational backup flow and owner-only restore.

Applies to: Nord Inventory v2.0.0

Admin Studio can create inventory backups. Restore is owner-gated by default because it can replace persistent state. Before a major migration:

1. take a full database backup outside Nord;
2. create a Nord backup where appropriate;
3. test the migration on staging;
4. stop conflicting inventory writers;
5. migrate and verify counts/metadata;
6. keep rollback data until the server has run cleanly through restart/reconnect cycles.
