If you restore a database backup of an embedded database of a UMS version prior to 6.05, the superuser credentials are identical to the credentials of the database user. It is recommended to reset the superuser password. For database backups of UMS versions 6.05 and higher, the superuser credentials have already been stored in the database backup and are taken from there. |

Tip To avoid problems with backup restoring and with UMS performance generally, it is highly recommended to use administrative tasks to automatically clean up logs – logging data, job execution data, execution data of administrative tasks, process events, asset information history; see Administrative Tasks - Configure Scheduled Actions for the IGEL UMS. See also Performance Optimizations in IGEL UMS. |
