There are two Backup and Restore methods: Building Operation and BACnet. You can select the backup and restore method that suits your SmartStruxure server data storage and retrieval requirements.
The following table contrasts the Building Operation and BACnet backup and restore methods.
Method |
Purpose |
Description |
Building Operation Backup |
Backs up configuration data and historical data |
Use this method to back up SmartStruxure servers that can include data from b3, LonWorks, Network 8000, I/NET, MicroNet, and Modbus devices. The b3 devices are automatically backed up whenever a SmartStruxure server is backed up. Therefore, b3 devices do not need backing up using the BACnet Backup method. |
BACnet Backup |
Backs up configuration data |
Use this method to backup primarily:
BACnet Backup and Restore can also backup and restore b3 devices that are connected to either a b3CX controller or external router. However, BACnet backup and restore cannot backup b3 devices when the devices are connected to a SmartStruxure server device that functions as a router.

Building Operation Restore |
Restores a SmartStruxure server using configuration data and historical data contained in a backup set |
Use this method to restore SmartStruxure servers that can include data from b3, LonWorks, Network 8000, I/NET, MicroNet, and Modbus devices. |
BACnet Restore |
Restores a device using configuration data contained in a backup set (no historical data) |
Use this method to backup primarily:
