4.1 Overview of backing up and restoring jobnets
You can back up and restore the unit definition information for each job, jobnet, or job group. You can also create a backup of unit definition information and execute a jobnet distributed to different scheduler services or hosts.
When distributing a job group or jobnet, you can use JP1/Software Distribution or JP1/FTP. Since JP1/Software Distribution can automatically distribute redefined jobnets, it lets you manage JP1/AJS3's applications on hosts more easily. For details about automatic distribution of JP1/Software Distribution, see 11. Automatic Distribution Using JP1/Software Distribution in the Job Management Partner 1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Linkage Guide.
We recommend that only a superuser or member of the Administrators group perform backup and restoration.
- Important note
-
The information that can be backed up by using the method described here is information that defines a jobnet or job. Therefore, you cannot use JP1/AJS3 to back up a jobnet or job including its related information such as execution results. If you want to back up and restore the information including execution results of a jobnet or job, use the OS functionality. Before you do so, stop all the JP1/AJS3 services on the manager host and related agent host.
