Restoring a single Project to Project Server from backup

K

Kevin Lisboa

Project Server seems to have taken a liking to one of our
loaded plans and utterly destroyed it. We've got previous
versions of the plan backed up, but nobody here has ever
done a single project plan restore.

Does anyone have some documentation or a reference that
could be shared on this matter?

Thanks,
Kevin

I don't have documentation but it is wonderfully easy.

1. Restore DB to new DB name.
2. Create ODBC DSN pointing to DB.
3. Open Project in Offline mode.
4. On Open dialog, click ODBC button.
5. Choose project you want.
6. Make sure it is OK and save to disk (as .mpp).
7. Import that back to Server.

I hope I have all of that right. It's been a while but it really was very
easy.
