Manage and protect data by performing a backup.
On Linux and Solaris systems, back up:
- project files ending in .ccl, .ccr, and
.ccx in the workspace folder,
/SybaseESP/5.1/workspace unless you overrode the default
when installing ESP
- service.xml file in
$ESP_HOME/bin
- node configuration files in
$ESP_HOME/cluster/nodes/node1,
$ESP_HOME/cluster/nodes/node2,
...
- cluster.log.properties files in
$ESP_HOME/cluster/nodes/node1,
$ESP_HOME/cluster/nodes/node2,
...
- security configuration files in
$ESP_HOME/security
- log store files in the folder you specified when you created the log stores
- any external files used by your projects
On Windows systems, back up:
- project files ending in .ccl, .ccr, and
.ccx in the workspace folder,
C:\Users\userid\My
Documents\SybaseESP\5.1\workspace unless you overrode the default
when installing ESP
- service.xml file in
%ESP_HOME%\bin
- node configuration files in
%ESP_HOME%\cluster\nodes\node1,
%ESP_HOME%\cluster\nodes\node2,
...
- cluster.log.properties files in
%ESP_HOME%\cluster\nodes\node1,
%ESP_HOME%\cluster\nodes\node2, ...
if you have modified them
- security configuration files in
%ESP_HOME%\security if you have modified
them
- log store files in the folder you specified when you created the log stores
- ODBC.INI file in C:\Windows if you are
using the ODBC driver for ESP
- any external files used by your projects
Sybase recommends that you use offline backups. You can, however, back up
projects and log stores while the project server is running. This is called an online
backup. An offline backup is preferred because it performs the backup on all machines
and is quicker than an online backup. You do not need to individually rename files and
file extensions when restoring data, as you would with an online backup.
Note: Ensure all files are added to the backup set. Generally, these files have the same name, but different extensions, and are all stored in the same directory. Ensure all projects and associated log stores are backed up.
