Create a backup (standalone POS) system using a SQL express setup

Hello!

Is it possible to quickly create a backup POS from a working networked system. I would just like to have a backup POS in case my network or server ever goes down.

Possibly create a new standalone installation using a back up of my existing system?

Thanks,
Pete.

Backup the Database.

Optionally save the DB backup to a thumb-drive or NAS.

Restore the DB on another machine that has a SQL Express installation and a SambaPOS installation.
