Back Up a CA Enterprise Log Manager Server

You can back up an entire CA Enterprise Log Manager server from the /opt/CA/LogManager/data folder. This data folder is a symbolic link to the data folder under root directory (/data).

To back up a CA Enterprise Log Manager server

1. Log into the CA Enterprise Log Manager server as the caelmadmin user.
2. Access the root account using the su utility.
3. Navigate to the directory, /opt/CA/LogManager.
4. Execute the following TAR command to create a backup copy of the CA Enterprise Log Manager server files:

   tar -hzcvf backupData.tgz /data
   

   This command creates the compressed output file, backupData.tgz, using the files from the /data directory.

5. Navigate to the directory, /opt/CA/SharedComponents/iTechnology.
6. Execute the following TAR command to create a backup copy of the digital certificates (all files with a .cer file extension):

   tar -zcvf backupCerts.tgz *.cer
   

   This command creates the compressed output file, backupCerts.tgz.

   tar -hzcvf backupCerts.tgz /data
