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.

The backup target can be any folder. A collection of files constituting the backed-up data is created in a folder you specify.

Note: Backup files only include raw data in the original tables, without the index data. Therefore, they cannot be used directly as a database and must be recovered with MORecover before they can be used.

You can schedule this command to run regularly when your system is lightly loaded, since the backup operation runs simultaneously with the messaging server's normal processing.

Change to <UnwiredPlatform_InstallDir>\Servers\AdvantageXXX\Server.
Run the adsbackup utility to create a MORecover snapshot; for example:
adsbackup.exe iAPPLICATIONS,CFG_IDS,CFG_PROP_VALUES,CFG_SUBFOLDER_PROP_VALUES,CFG_TEMPLATES,DEVICES,USER_DEVICE,USERS "C:\Sybase\UnwiredPlatform-X_X\Servers\MessagingServer\Data\OBR\OBR.add" <MYBackupTarget>
