This section describes points that require attention when performing backups or restorations:
Notes on operations that use coexistence with Systemwalker Operation Manager
Notes on the environments where backups and restorations are performed
Notes on operations that use coexistence with Systemwalker Operation Manager
Systemwalker Runbook Automation backup/restore is executed at the same time as Systemwalker Operation Manager backup/restore.
In order to use operations that use coexistence with Systemwalker Operation Manager, backup/restore Systemwalker Operation Manager using the same backup/restore procedure that is used for Systemwalker Runbook Automation. Do not execute backup/restore on the standalone Systemwalker Operation Manager.
Notes on the environments where backups and restorations are performed
The backup and restoration environments must follow the criteria below:
When OS are different in from backup and to restore
However, execution will be possible if the operating system versions of the same vendor are different.
When the product installation directories are different [Windows]
When the host information (host name/IP address) is different
When the code types are different
When the LDAP servers are different
When the Process Management database storage directories are different
When the CMDB database storage directories are different
When the sub system number with using scheduling are different
When the Web server (Interstage HTTP Server), message broker, and server function port numbers are different
Notes on the timing of backups and restorations
When backup and restore are executed, it will be necessary to stop, and then, restart Systemwalker Runbook Automation. Additionally, at the time of restore Systemwalker Operation Manager is stopped, and then, restarted. For this reason, the operator should execute backup and restore in a time zone that does not use Systemwalker Runbook Automation and Systemwalker Operation Manager.
The status of the Automated Operation Process will be restored exactly as it was at the point when the backup was executed. For this reason, if the restoration was executed using the backup resources of the Automated Operation Process while it was running, the activity of the Automated Operation Process will be restarted. It is recommended that you first check that there are no Automated Operation Processes which are running, before executing the backup.
Additionally, any user assets that are used, such as File Listener, will not be targets of backup/restore. These should be backed up if necessary.
If backup is executed while a Systemwalker Operation Manager job/job net/group is running, and that information is then restored, the job/job net/group that is running will end abnormally with the exit code 239. It is recommended that you execute this operation in a time zone in which the job/job net/group are not executed.
Handling backup resources
When moving backup resources to the restoration target, move the directory specified as the backup directory and all its files.
Do not delete the backup resources in the directory specified as the backup directory until the restoration completes.
The backup command cannot be used to back up data to the following types of media:
Optical disks such as CD-Rs and DVD-Rs
To save user assets to optical disks, first back up the data to the local disk, and then, write it to the media using a dedicated optical disk writer, for example.
Network paths [Windows]
Directories whose pathnames include spaces [Windows]
For the backup destination directory name, only alphanumeric characters can be specified. The name cannot include symbols or blank spaces.
The backup directory name can contain up to the following number of characters:
32 characters |
If the specified directory does not exist, it will be created by the backup command.
Operations during backups and restorations
Do not operate the following middleware products during backups or restorations:
Interstage Application Server
Systemwalker Operation Manager
Systemwalker Centric Manager
Systemwalker Runbook Automation
Handling restoration resources
The restore command cannot be used to restore data from the following type of media:
Directories whose pathnames contain spaces
Restore from network path [Windows]
For the backup destination directory name, only alphanumeric characters can be specified. The name cannot include symbols or blank spaces.
The backup directory name can contain up to the following number of characters:
32 bytes |
