Novell ZENworks 10 Configuration Management allows you to back up and restore the
embedded Sybase SQL Anywhere database by using the zman command line utility. To back up and
restore Oracle* or Microsoft SQL Server* databases, refer to their documentation.
IMPORTANT: If you plan to back up the ZENworks Server that hosts the ZENworks database, you
must ensure that the ZENworks database is backed up at least once before backing up the ZENworks
Server (which only needs to be done one time). You can also back up the ZENworks database on a
regular basis. However, you can back up the server and the database in any order.
When restoring the ZENworks Server and the database, you must first restore the ZENworks Server,
then restore the latest backed-up ZENworks database. For more information about backing up and
restoring the ZENworks Server, see
and Certificate Authority," on page
ZENworks 10 Configuration Management also allows you to migrate the data from the Sybase SQL
Anywhere database to an Oracle database.
