8.1.2 Backing up the database

A command is used to back up a database.

This subsection explains how to back up a database.

We recommend that you back up your database periodically.

Organization of this subsection

(1) Before you start

Verify that setup of ITSLM - Manager and ITSLM - UR has been completed.

For details about how to set up ITSLM - Manager, see 5.1.6 Setting up ITSLM - Manager; for details about how to set up ITSLM - UR, see 5.1.7 Setting up ITSLM - UR.

To back up the database:

Terminate all ITSLM - URs that are connect to the ITSLM - Manager whose database is to be backed up.

For details about how to terminate ITSLM - UR, see 2.1.3 Terminating ITSLM - UR.
On the host on which the ITSLM - Manager whose database is to be backed up is installed, from the Windows Start menu, select Administrative Tools, and then Services.
Stop the ITSLM - Manager service JP1/ITSLM - Manager Web Service (service name: JP1_ITSLM_MGR_Web_Service) of the ITSLM - Manager whose database is to be backed up.
Stop the ITSLM - Manager service JP1/ITSLM - Manager Service (service name: JP1_ITSLM_MGR_Service) of the ITSLM - Manager whose database is to be backed up.
Execute the database backup command.

Execute the following backup command:

jslmdbcopy absolute-path-of-backup-file

For details about the backup command, see jslmdbcopy (backs up database) in 9. Commands.
Start the ITSLM - Manager service JP1/ITSLM - Manager Service that was stopped in step 4.
Start the ITSLM - Manager service JP1/ITSLM - Manager Web Service that was stopped in step 3.
Start all ITSLM - URs that were terminated in step 1.

For details about how to start ITSLM - UR, see 2.1.2 Starting ITSLM - UR.

If the database backup command terminates normally and ITSLM - Manager and the ITSLM - URs start, the task of backing up the database is complete.
