14.1.1 Resources Saved when the Backup Command is Executed

This section explains the definition information and the configuration information that is saved when the backup command is executed.

Resources saved when the backup command is executed are shown below.

Backup storage directory

When the bdpp_backup command is executed, a parent directory named FJSVbdpp-backup is created in the specified backup destination directory. The saved resources are then classified by type and stored in this parent directory.

The table below shows the types of resources (backup) stored in the directories that are created.

Note

The structure of directories created under FJSVbdpp-backup varies for each server, because the resources to be backed up differ for the primary master server, the secondary master server, development servers, and collaboration servers.


Backup size

The table below provides an estimate of the size of resources saved at backup (the capacity of the FJSVbdpp-backup directory).

Check the available disk space on the relevant server before performing backup to prevent backup failure due to insufficient disk space.

Note

When the bdpp_backup command is executed on the primary master server, separate disk space is required temporarily for tasks. Refer to "[Master Server]" in "3.2.3.2 Dynamic Disk Size" for information on the temporarily required disk space.

Information

Obtaining the clone image file size

This section explains how to obtain the clone image file size.

  1. Log in to the master server.

  2. Execute the bdpp_listimage command, and confirm the current storage location of the clone image file.

  3. Specify the directory confirmed at Step 2, and execute the du command.

    The following example shows /var/opt/FJSVscw-deploysv/depot as the storage area of the clone image file.

    # du -hs /var/opt/FJSVscw-deploysv/depot <Enter>
