You also need the testdb directory where all of the settings are stored.

Restore the entirety of testdb and DB1 and/or DB2.

Is there a testdb for each individual profile?

Thank you for your help. I was able to restore my profiles by restoring the testdb folder. The profile folders and db2 were already in the appropriate location.

What else would I need to routinely backup for disaster recovery or to reinstall. I will backup the profile folders, scripts, and testdb folder. What else is important?

I would grab the entire install directory which has the binaries and license key. That would also encompass the testdb directory and possibly the data spaces if you put them in the default place.
