| Backing up data on the server |
| |
What folders should be included in regular server data backup? |
| |
The following files/folders should be part of your regular backup procedures. It is not necessary to stop the XCN Server or interrupt XC Connect or XC Vault in any way.
For Windows hosts (see also note below):
c:\mysql\data\
c:\xcnetwork\itemxml\
c:\xcnetwork\xvault\
For Linux hosts:
/usr/xcnetwork/data/
For OS X hosts
/Applications/Xchange Network Server/data/
Windows backup:
We have found that on some Windows machines, some of those files, specifically the ones located in the c:\mysql\data\xcnetwork folder are not being allowed to be read during a standard backup process - we're not sure why Windows behaves like that, it just does.
The good news is that there is a fix is to make your backup procedure include a batch script with the following:
rem Stop the Xchange Network Server
net stop XCNetworkApp
net stop XCConnect
net stop MySQL
rem Start your backup process
rem
rem Start the Xchange Network Server
net start MySQL
net start XCConnect
net start XCNetworkApp
Depending on how your backup system works, you may have to split the script in 2 halves and have the first part executed before the backup and the 2nd half after, but the above is the basic idea. |
