Backing up and restoring administrative configuration files

This topic discusses how to back up and restore administrative configuration files.

About this task

WebSphere Application Server represents its administrative configurations as XML files. You should back up configuration files on a regular basis.

Restore the configuration only if the configuration files that you backed up are at the same level of the release, including fixes, as the release to which you are restoring.

Procedure

  1. Run the backupConfig command to back up configuration files.
  2. Run the restoreConfig command to restore configuration files. Specify backup files that do not contain invalid or inconsistent configurations.
