Run the backupConfig command on the deployment manager and all old nodes

Map Step 1 towards the goal: Scenario 2: Migrating cells across operating systems using the command-line tools

About this task

If the process fails, save the current deployment manager and node configuration to a file that you can use later for recovery purposes.

Procedure

  1. Change to the deployment_manager_profile_root/bin directory.
  2. Run the backupConfig command with the appropriate parameters and save the current profile configuration to a file. For example:
    [Windows]
    
    version_6.1_profile_root
    \v61dmgr01\bin\
    backupConfig.bat \mybackup_old_host\v61dmgr01backupBeforeV8migration.zip 
    -username myuser -password mypass -nostop
    
    [AIX] [HP-UX] [Linux] [Solaris]
    
    version_6.1_profile_root
    /v61dmgr01/bin/backupConfig.sh 
    /mybackup_old_host/v61dmgr01backupBeforeV8migration.zip -username 
    myuser -password mypass -nostop
    
    where mybackup_old_host is the location where the configuration restore points are stored.
  3. For each node in the configuration, change to the node_profile_root/bin directory.
  4. Run the backupConfig command with the appropriate parameters and save the current profile configuration to a file. For example:
    [Windows]
    
    version_6.1_profile_root
    \v61node01\bin\backupConfig.bat 
    \mybackup_old_host\v61node01backupBeforeV8migration.zip -username
     myuser -password mypass -nostop
    
    [AIX] [HP-UX] [Linux] [Solaris]
    
    version_6.1_profile_root
    /v61node01
    /bin/backupConfig.sh /mybackup_old_host/v61node01rbackupBeforeV8migration.zip 
    -username myuser -password mypass -nostop
