Backup / Restore

Backup of GridServer Managers requires an OS-level file copy of the DS_DATA directory.

Backup Procedure

To back up a GridServer installation:

Archive (with GNU tar or ZIP) or simply copy the DS_DATA directory. (This is the directory that is specified by DS_DATA_DIR variable.)

Restore Procedure

To restore a GridServer installation:

1. Unpack the original GridServer Manager installation using WinZip or a similar tool for Windows; on a UNIX system, unpack using tar.

2. If you previously set DS_DATA_DIR in the server.bat or server.sh file, edit that file in the new installation and change the definition again.

Copy the backup DS_DATA directory to its previous location.
