4.2.2 Backing Up the Admin Server

This section explains how to back up the Systemwalker Software Configuration Manager admin server.

Note that Systemwalker Software Configuration Manager must be stopped before performing backup (refer to "Starting and Stopping Systemwalker Software Configuration Manager" for details).

4.2.2.1 Required Disk Space for Backup

Before backing up Systemwalker Software Configuration Manager, estimate the amount of disk space required for each asset, as explained below:

Asset

Required disk space

Systemwalker Runbook Automation

[Windows]

Required disk space =
  size of assets in the process management db that will be backed up (*1)
+ size of %SWRBA_HOME% and its subdirs (*2)
+ size of %SWRBA_OMGR% and its subdirs (*3)
+ size of %SWCMDB_INSTALL_PATH%\FJSVcmdbm\Shunsaku\directorData and its subdirs 
+ size of %SWCMDB_INSTALL_PATH%\FJSVcmdbm\fcmdb\file
+ 100 MB

*1: Size specified for the process management database directory during setup

*2: %SWRBA_HOME% contains the Systemwalker Runbook Automation (which is included in Systemwalker Software Configuration Manager) installation directory

*3: %SWRBA_OMGR% contains the Systemwalker Operation Manager (which is included with Systemwalker Software Configuration Manager) installation directory

[Linux]

Required disk space =
  size of assets in the process management db that will be backed up (*1)
+ size of /etc/opt/FJSVswrbam
+ size of /var/opt/FJSVswrbam
+ size of /var/opt/FJSVJMCMN/etc
+ size of /var/opt/FJSVjmcal
+ size of /var/opt/FJSVJOBSC
+ size of /var/opt/FJSVfwseo/config/JM (*2)
+ size of /opt/FJSVJOBSC/bin
+ size of /etc/mjes
+ size of /var/spool/mjes
+ size of /opt/FJSVcmdbm/var/Shunsaku/directorData
+ size of /opt/FJSVcmdbm/var/fcmdb/file
+ 100 MB

*1: Size specified for the process management database directory during setup

*2: If either of the conditions below is satisfied, replace "FJSVfwseo" with "FJSVfwsec" in your calculation:

  • After installing Systemwalker Software Configuration Manager, Systemwalker Centric Manager V13.4.0 is installed

  • A more recent version than Systemwalker Centric Manager V13.4.0 is installed (regardless of whether installed before or after Systemwalker Software Configuration Manager)

ServerView Resource Orchestrator

Refer to "Mechanism of Backup and Restoration" in the ServerView Resource Orchestrator Cloud Edition Operation Guide for details.

User assets

[Windows]

Required disk space =
 size of <Systemwalker Software Configuration Manager installation directory>\SWCFMGM\SWCFMGDB
+ 1 MB

*1: Size specified for the process management database directory during setup

[Linux]

Required disk space =
 size of /var/opt/FJSVcfmgm/SWCFMGMDB
+ 1MB

Media library

Required disk space =
 size of <media library directory>

4.2.2.2 Backing Up User Information
