Backing Up System Data

In mobility environments, data backups are a fundamental method of securing data. Depending on your database type, different backup mechanisms exist.

For platform data, back up synchronization repositories and Sybase Control Center (SCC) repositories. SCC and the CDB (for replication-based synchronization) can use the process described for SQL Anywhere databases. Messaging data requires its own process.

Note: When you make a backup, decide where to store the backup files: on the Unwired Server host or on some other computer or third-party hardware/software package used for backup purposes.
  1. Backing Up a SQL Anywhere Database
    Back up platform data warehoused in SQL databases using SQL Anywhere utilities.
  2. Backing Up Messaging Data
    Use the adsbackup utility to back up messaging data. You can then use MORecover to recover the data to an existing database.
