Online Backup and Restore

If you require the Data Vault to be highly available, you can take a snapshot of the Data Vault while the File Archive Service is online and then back up the snapshot.

Use a snapshot utility supported by your file system to take a snapshot of the File Archive repository and data files. Read the documentation for your file system to determine the proper way to use the snapshot utility to back up or restore files.

View the configuration files to determine the directories where the File Archive repository and data files are stored.

Run the snapshot utility for your file system to back up or restore the File Archive repository and data files.

To back up the files, use the snapshot utility to create a snapshot of the File Archive repository and the data files.

Consult the documentation for your file system and follow the instructions for creating a snapshot. When the snapshot process is complete, use your file backup utility to back up the File Archive repository and data files in the snapshot location.

To restore the backup files, consult the documentation for your file system and follow the instructions for restoring the File Archive repository and data files from a snapshot.

When you complete the restore process, the File Archive Service can use the newly restored File Archive repository and data files.
