Back up the administrative agent and node configuration

About this task

Step 1 towards the goal: Migrating an administrative agent profile and its registered set of managed base application servers on z/OS

In case of failure during the migration, run the backupConfig command to save the current administrative agent and node configuration to a file that you can use later for recovery purposes.

Procedure

  1. Change to the administrative_agent_profile_root/bin directory.
  2. Run the backupConfig command with the appropriate parameters on the administrative agent and all managed base application servers. For example:
    /opt/WebSphereV61/profiles/v61dmgr01/bin/backupConfig.sh 
    /mybackupdir/v61dmgr01backupBeforeV7migration.zip 
    -username myuser -password mypass -nostop
  3. For each node in the configuration, change to the profile_root/bin directory.
  4. Run the backupConfig command with the appropriate parameters, and save the current profile configuration to a file. For example:
    /opt/WebSphereV70/profiles/v70mas01/bin/backupConfig.sh 
    /mybackupdir/v70mas01rbackupBeforeV85migration.zip 
    -username myuser -password mypass -nostop
  5. Alternately, you can use the PAX command to back up all HFS files. For more information, see Using the z/OS UNIX pax command
