Restoring Graph Data

If the graph data being edited is incorrect, you can load the backup data to restore the graph data for analysis.

Ten-thousand-edge graphs and graphs of the database edition cannot be automatically backed up. You need to back up a graph and restore data from the manul backup. For graphs of other sizes, you can restore data from an automatic backup or manual backup.

The procedure is as follows:

  1. Log in to the GES management console and choose Backup Management from the navigation pane on the left.
  2. On the Backup Management page displayed, locate the row containing your desired backup and click Restore in the Operation column.
  3. In the Restore dialog box, select This operation will overwrite the target graph. After the restoration starts, the target graph will be restarted using the backup. Then, click Yes.

  4. Once the page indicates that the restoration command has been successfully executed, you can go to the Graph Management page. Wait for the graph status to be Running and then access the associated graph to retrieve the restored data.
