Realm Service Database Restore
After a backup of the primary realm service is created, you can restore the realm service from the backup by using this procedure.
- Procedure
- Stop all the realm services that are running by stopping all TIBCO FTL servers.
- For the TIBCO FTL Server being restored, ensure its data directory (as defined in the YAML configuration file) is created and empty.
- From the backup that was previously created, find the appropriate config back-up file or files.
The naming convention for a back-up file is
<filename>_<timestamp>.<extension>.backup, where<extension>can be an appropriate extension such as 'dat' or 'persist'. Note that there may be more than one.backupfile so be sure to find all such files with a matching <timestamp>. - Copy the
<filename>_<timestamp>.<extension>.backupfiles into the empty data directory to restore from the backup. Rename the files to<filename>.<extension>. As an example,config_SRV1_<timestamp>.persist.backupwould be renamed toconfig_SRV1.persist. - Restart the TIBCO FTL server, which loads the restored
<filename>.<extension>file and uses the information in that file as the realm definition.
