8.1.4 Restoring the definition files

If you have a backup of the definition files (system definition files and system configuration properties file) and a problem occurs in SLM itself, you can restore the environment to its status before the problem occurred.

You must restore definition files manually.

This subsection explains how to restore the definition files.

(2) Procedure

To restore the definition files:

Terminate the SLM - Manager or SLM - URs whose definition files are to be restored.
- If the definition files to be restored belong to SLM - Manager, terminate all SLM - URs connected to SLM - Manager and then terminate SLM - Manager.
  
  For details about how to terminate SLM - UR, see 2.1.3 Terminating SLM - UR; for details about how to terminate SLM - Manager, see 2.1.4 Terminating SLM - Manager.
- If the definition files to be restored belong to an SLM - UR, terminate only that SLM - UR.
  
  For details about how to terminate SLM - UR, see 2.1.3 Terminating SLM - UR.
Copy the backup of the definition files to the correct folders to overwrite the existing data.

The copy destinations are as follows:

If the definition files to be restored belong to SLM - Manager:

SLM-Manager-installation-folder\ mgr\conf\jp1itslm.properties

SLM-Manager-installation-folder\ mgr\sdpengine\analysisN^#\conf\system_config.properties

#: N is a number from 1 through 10.

If the definition files to be restored belongs to an SLM - UR:

SLM-UR-installation-folder\ ur\conf\jp1itslmur.properties

SLM-UR-installation-folder\ur\ sdpengine\collector\conf\system_config.properties

SLM-UR-installation-folder\ur\ sdpengine\collector2\conf\system_config.properties

SLM-UR-installation-folder\ur\sdpengine\recorder\conf\system_config.properties
Start the SLM - Manager and SLM - URs whose definition files were restored.
- If the restored definition files belong to SLM - Manager, start SLM - Manager that was terminated in step 1 and then start the SLM - URs that were also terminated in step 1.
  
  For details about how to start SLM - Manager, see 2.1.1 Starting SLM - Manager; for details about how to start SLM - UR, see 2.1.2 Starting SLM - UR.
- If the restored definition files belong to an SLM - UR, start only that SLM - UR.
  
  For details about how to start SLM - UR, see 2.1.2 Starting SLM - UR.

If SLM - Manager and SLM - URs with restored definition files start, the task of restoring the definition files is complete.
