OpenBackup - method of the PmgAlarmHistoryViewer object

Description:

Open backup.

Syntax:

Empty OpenBackup(Variant vBackup, [Variant nMoveTo])

Parameters:

vBackup	(Variant) Backup identifier. The $latest value means the last newest backup.
nMoveTo	[optional] (Variant) The parameter specifies where to move the selected row of the opened backup. The allowed values are: 21, 22, 23 and 24 (default). See the MoveTo method.

Note:

The viewer connects automatically to the last backup after opening. The OpenBackup method allows switching between backups.
The method is asynchronous and therefore the onConnect event is triggered after each connection to the backup (including the initial automatic connection).

Calling this method is meaningful only if the PmaAlarmGroup object to which this viewer is connected to has the "Storage type" configurator set to the same type that creates the backups, i.e. "Text file (*.al)" or "Database dBase backups".

This method is also functional in Web panels.

Example:

Selects and sets the second item from the backup list

JavaScriptVBScriptSelect and copy to clipboard



var oViewer = pMe.Items("/Viewer");

var aBackups = oViewer.GetBackupInfo("list", "");

var sBackup = aBackups.GetItem(0, 1);

oViewer.OpenBackup(sBackup);
