Where can a Nexus course backup be restored to?
We recommend that Nexus course backup files are restored to an empty course. While a course backup file can technically be restored to any Nexus course, it is not recommended. Please contact LDDI to have an empty course created for you at helpdesk@union.edu.
How to restore a Nexus course backup:
1. Login to Nexus and go to your home page.
2. From Course navigation go to [More] select [Course reuse].
3. From the dropdown menu, select [Restore]. You will see the area to drag and drop your backup, as well as any backups you may have created. Find the course you'd like to include then click the [Restore] button.
4. Review the material that will be restored into the course on the Backup Details page, then click [Continue] at the bottom of the page.
5. On the Destination page, select [Restore as a new course] then click [Next] at the bottom of the page.
6. Under Course Settings and Schema, review the course options and when finished click [Next] at the bottom of the page.
Once confirmed, click [Perform Restore] at the bottom of the page.
7. The restore will now begin and show its completed progress. When complete, click the [Continue] button to go to the newly restored course.
