Backing up a file store

You can back up the files in a file store by using the facilities of your operating system, or by using a backup tool.

About this task

A file store is a type of message store that directly uses files in a file system through the operating system. Use the facilities of your operating system or a backup tool to back up the log file, the permanent store file, and the temporary store file, which comprise a file store. For more information about these files, see File store configuration attributes.

Important: If you start backing up files while the messaging engine is still running, data might be corrupted.
Note: You must treat the log file, the temporary store file, and the permanent store file as one unit; that is, any operations must be performed on all three files.
