D.3.2 Saving the Device Management Information

The device management information of the SSC Manager must be saved.

In the place of "save_destination" referred to in the following procedure, specify a directory in which the information will be saved.


For Windows Manager:

  1. Copy the upgrade tool "winupgrade.exe" to the work directory (for more information, refer to "D.2 Files supplied").

    The work directory is referred to as "D:\tmp\upgrade" in the following steps.

  2. Execute the winupgrade.exe file in the work directory.

    The following files will be extracted in the work directory:

    • cimbackup.bat

    • cimrestore.bat

    • sscreg.exe

    • dbkit.jar

    • perfkit.jar

  3. Start the command prompt, and move to the work directory.

    C:\Document and Settings\Administrator> D:
    D:\> cd D:\tmp\upgrade
    D:\tmp\upgrade>
  4. Execute cimbackup.bat at the command prompt.

    D:\tmp\upgrade> cimbackup [/all] save_destination

    When executed without specifying /all option, a performance information CSV file will not be backed up. When migrating performance information that has already been acquired, specify the /all option. When the /all option is specified, execution of the command may take longer, as it depends on the size of the performance information CSV file.

    When the command is executed successfully, the following message will be displayed on the last line.

    INFO: cimbackup has been completed.

For Solaris OS Manager:

For the cluster environment, mount the shared disk for the administrative server shared data.

  1. Copy the upgrade tool "solupgrade.exe" to the work directory (for more information, refer to "D.2 Files supplied").

    The work directory is referred to as "/tmp/upgrade" in the following explanation.

  2. Move to the work directory, and extract solupgrade.tar.

    # cd /tmp/upgrade
    # tar xvf solupgrade.tar

    The following files will be extracted in the work directory.

    • cimbackup.sh

    • cimrestore.sh

    • dbkit.jar

    • perfkit.jar

  3. Execute cimbackup.sh.

    # ./cimbackup.sh [-all] save_destination

    When executed without specifying -all option, a performance information CSV file will not be backed up. When migrating performance information that has already been acquired, specify the -all option. When the -all option is specified, execution of the command may take longer, as it depends on the size of the performance information CSV file.

    When the command is executed successfully, the following message will be displayed on the last line.

    INFO: cimbackup has been completed.
