Backing Up System Components (Backup Manager)

Definition
The HiPath Software Manager allows the following system components and databases of a Hi-
Path 3000/5000 network to be backed up:
Full backup (= default setting)
●
This option creates a data backup for all HiPath 3000 systems and HG 1500 boards in the
HiPath 3000/5000 network as well as databases (Feature Server, SQL Server).
HG 1500 backup
●
This menu item displays all HG 1500 boards in the HiPath 3000/5000 network in an over-
view. It is possible to back up the data of one or all of the displayed HG 1500 board(s)
(HG 1500 V3.0 SMR-3 or later).
HiPath 3000 backup
●
With this menu item, all HiPath 3000 systems in the HiPath 3000/5000 network are dis-
played in an overview. It is possible to back up the data of a specific system or of all dis-
played HiPath 3000 systems.
Database backup
●
With this menu item, all databases (Feature Server, SQL Server) are displayed in an over-
view. It is possible to back up the data of one or of all database(s).
Refer to the help provided with the HiPath Software Manager for information on backup with
this tool.
Setting options
It is possible to specify individually when a backup is to take place and where the backed up
data can be stored.
Time of data backup
●
The data backup can either be started manually immediately or performed at a predefined
time. By default, a full backup is performed cyclically, with the data being saved daily at a
specific time.
Backup path
●
The path for the directory in which the backup files are to be stored can be specified.
Backup to a local drive
●
There is no need to specify a special user account for this type of backup.
Backup to a network drive
●
A user account (user name, password) with write permission for the network drive must be
specified for this type of backup.
If the backup source (for example HiPath 5000) is located on a separate PC, this user ac-
count must have read permission for the shared drive.
