Should you wish to reset all configuration data in Traverse and start with a fresh installation, you can replace the provisioning database with a clean copy with no devices/tests provisioned:
Log into the Traverse server as “administrator” (Windows), "root" (Linux/Solaris) or another user with equivalent administrative privileges.
Shut down Traverse components. On Windows, this can be accomplished using Start -> Programs -> Zyrion Traverse -> Stop Zyrion Traverse. On Linux/Solaris use "etc/traverse.init stop". If Traverse is installed in a distributed configuration (multiple DGEs), stop Traverse components on the DGE servers first and finally on the BVE.
Move or delete database/provisioning and database/provisioningdict folders under Traverse installation directory.
Copy the database/fresh/provisioning and database/fresh/provisioningdict folders into database/ to replace the items removed in step 3.
Start Traverse Components and log into the Web Application using default login credentials (http://community.zyrion.com/showthread.php?t=2).
Example session showing reset of provisioning database (substitute correct installation path as appropriate):
(Windows)
C:
cd "\Program Files (x86)\Traverse"
rd /s database\provisioning*
xcopy /e database\fresh\provisioning* database\
(Linux/Solaris)
cd /usr/local/traverse
rm -fr database/provisioning*
cp -r database/fresh/provisioning* database/
Note that the historical performance and event information recorded in the DGE database will be purged automatically when the Data Gathering Engine component is started. Also, the default/fresh configuration data only has a DGE named "localhost" defined. Therefore in a multi DGE environment, you will need to re-create the location and DGE via the Web Application after logged in as superuser.
