Hello,

The backup is done by running "Softerra.Adaxes.BackupRestore.exe tool" to automate the backup, what do you recommend?

To automate the process, you can use command line. For details, have a look at section To back up or restore configuration via command line of the following help article: https://www.adaxes.com/help/?HowDoI.Man ... ation.html. For information on the command line parameters, see https://www.adaxes.com/help/?HowDoI.Man ... dLine.html.

In case of restoring a backup, does the SQL server log also come back automatically or need some configuration?

Logging configuration (e.g. external database settings) is included into the backup, there is no need to configure anything specific for this purpose.
