Destroyed CRM server!

John Develekos

Dear friends,
We just managed to destroy our CRM Server. Now we installed a new server and
the only thing that is left from the old server is an intact Outlook offline
database. Is it possible to restore the data from this database to the
server? I opened the database to the SQL Express and it looks fine.
Thank you in advance,
John Develekos

I don't have an off-line database to look at. But I would not expect that you
could just restore from this database because only the records you ask to be
synced are. It will not have all the CRM configuration information.

You may find you can created a new database, then get the data from the
off-line database, and imported. If you are using CRM 4 the data migration
manager works very well for importing data.

Hopefully with this you will be able to get most of you data back.
