Hi ,
Can you tell me more about your set up? This is just your own personal system, and not a production instance correct? Do you have a backup sym file? Back up the sym file – Kdb+ and q documentation (kx.com)
For enumeration, I would recommend reading Working with sym files | White Papers | Kdb+ and q documentation (kx.com)
There is also a course on the KX Academy on Enumeration with examples and practical guidance: KX Academy
Hope this helps,
Laura

Hypothetically lets assume a production instance. I’m trying to look for the back up. Unfortunately, I’m placed in a situation where a kdb I didn’t build was dumped in my lap with minimal documentation

Hi ,
Was the data fed through a tickerplant? Are there TP logs you could replay? Data recovery for kdb+tick | Kdb+ and q documentation
Is it real-time data and therefore still coming into the system and trying to update a broken sym file?The reason I asked about production vs personal is that if you are an enterprise customer, you can access customer support here for more direct help Software Support | KX
However, for advice on a truly hypothetical production issue, feel free to answer the above and I can advise from thereLaura
