Backing up/restoring the SMC

4.5.3 Configuration data of the CDE interface

All settings of the CDE interface for a login are located in the home directory of the user in
the subdirectory .dt. This also includes the preconfigured terminals described in the
section "Preconfiguring terminals" on page
rectory of the SCS folder; if this is not the case, the relevant files can be found directly in
the home directory of the user.
To save these settings, it is advisable to include them in the backup of the configuration data
of the System Console Software (see
Alternatively, data can also be written separately onto a DAT cartridge with the command
tar.
Backing up and restoring with scslbackup/scslrestore
For backups in the context of System Console Software, the administrator of the System
Management Console must ensure that this data is included with the command
scslbackup. The underlying procedure for backing up data with scslbackup is as follows:
1. The command searches all available directories under /etc/opt/FJSVscsl/backup
2. In these directories, scripts with the name
prebackup (before the backup) and postbackup (after the backup) are executed, if
they are available, in the context of the backup run.
3. For the actual data backup, a search is made in these directories for a file with the name
printlist. These files contain the names of the files which are to be backed up on
tape.
4. All files which are listed in the printlist files are backed up on tape.
5. When restoring data, the scripts prerestore (before the restore process) and
postrestore (after the restore process) in the directories under
/etc/opt/FJSVscsl/backup are executed.
