Back up platform data warehoused in SQL databases using SQL Anywhere utilities.
Prerequisites
On backup hosts, verify that SQL Anywhere software is installed, and the PATH is set. If you are running Sybase Unwired Platform as a cluster, SQL Anywhere is installed under the Sybase Unwired Platform installation directory. Otherwise, install another copy of Sybase Unwired Platform on backup machines. Otherwise, SQL Anywhere components may not work as expected.
Task
By default, Unwired Platform uses SQL Anywhere for the consolidated and cluster databases. clusterdb is present if Unwired Server has been configured to run as a cluster.
Back up these components, which jointly make up a SQL Anywhere database: - Transaction logs – these files use the extension of *.log.
- The database file – this file uses the extension of *.db.
