Performing M-Business Server maintenance

Perform the following maintenance tasks on a daily, weekly, or as-needed basis.

  • Back up user and group data. See Backing up the database.

  • Create and run a database cleaner script. See Running a database cleaner script.

  • Clear server cache. If much of the traffic on your server includes channel pages that are not cache friendly (that is, they contain dynamic graphics, they do not expire, or they do not contain cache-control headers), you may want to clear the M-Business Server cache at least once a week. See Clearing the server cache.

  • Reset log files. If you have large numbers of users synchronizing frequently to the server, log files can become quite large. You may want to reset the log files once every week, or as necessary to free space. See Resetting the log files.
