Title

When restoring a vRanger DB make sure to have the .bak file local to the new server
Description

Not able to restore a vRanger SQL DB to a new machine after performing a backup. When you attempt to do the restore you have no way to point to the .bak file.
Cause

You will need to make sure you have a copy of the .bak file on the local disk. The new machine needs to have SQL installed, and have the .bak file local. You will not be able to restore the DB with the .bak file located on your local hard disk.
Resolution
Copy the backup file to the local filesystem, and restore directly from this copy.

1. Copy xx.bak to C:\xx.bak on the new vRanger server

2.Open Sql Management Studio Express

3.Syntax Example:
```
RESTORE DATABASE vRANGERPRO FROM DISK = N'C:\test.bak';
```
