Now that the server is updated, we can import the old database. Now that all of the data has been updated, all previous data, addons, missions, and scripts can be reuploaded to the server. It is also worth taking a look at the "Announcements" section of the Official ArmA 3 Epoch forum. The important files that should definitely stay on the server are: The latest server files can be found on the official website here. In most circumstances, an update is only a couple files. This will install ArmA 3 again, and include the most recent version of Epoch. This can be done on the web interface of your game server under " Switch Game", and choose " Reinstall". Now that all of your data is backed up, a new installation can be initiated. Be aware that this will not be included in the daily backups our system makes. This ensures that the folder, which contains the old ArmA 3 Epoch installation, is preserved through a new installation. This can be done via FTP, but can also be done through the File browser on the web interface (under Tools). The easiest way would be to just rename the main installation folder. It should be noted that the update you apply could break the database, and you would need to start your progress over, even if you have it backed up.Īfter you have saved your database, you should now backup your installed add-ons, scripts, and other file-based changes. Now you have backed up your database (we can upload it later if we need to). The database is in the form of dump.rdb, and should be downloaded. To do this, an FTP connection to your server is required.
To ensure none of this is lost in the update, it should be backed up as the first step.
The database system, Redis, used by Epoch contains the progress of players, positions of AI on the map, logs, and much more.
