Backup¶
The backup in beCPG is a fully automated on-the-spot procedure (which means with a turning on system).
The backup includes:
- The backup of the search index ;
- The backup of the data from databases ;
- The backup of contents and setting data.
The backup order is important, by default it’s guaranteed by the beCPG scripts and carried out in this order :
- 00:00 Statistics update (Cube OLAP)
- 03:00 Creation of the search index backups
- 03:30 Creation of the databases backups
- 04:00 Backups of contents and setting
The backups and contents are available on the beCPG server in : D:\becpg-tc-server or /opt/becpg-tc-server.
The backup of the folder can be done thanks to the tool « rsync » or another tool from 4:00 (point 4).
Note:
On certain installations, the databases backups are on the databases machine (7 days) in D:\backup ou /backup
Recovery¶
The recovery of the system is done while the system is off.
Stop the service¶
On the beCPG server :
Under windows :
Arrêter le service becpg-tc-server
Under linux :
/etc/init.d/inst1 stop
Copy files¶
Rename D:\becpg-tc-server or /opt/becpg-tc-server to becpg-tc-server-old
Copy and paste the backup to D:\becpg-tc-server or /opt/becpg-tc-server
MySQL databases recovery¶
On the machine in : D:\backup\mysql_daily_backups ou /backup/mysql_daily_backups.
On the principal server in : /opt/becpg-tc-server/backup/mysql_daily_backups
By means of the on line command tool mysqldump, recover the databases inst1 and becpg_olap
Example:
mysql -u root -pbecpg inst1 < D:\backup\mysql_daily_backups\mon_du_fichier_inst1 mysql -u root -pbecpg becpg_olap < D:\backup\mysql_daily_backups\mon_du_fichier_becpg_olap
Under windows , you can directly use the mysql client :
show databases; use inst1; source D:\backup\mysql_daily_backups\mon_du_fichier_inst1;
Restart the service¶
On the beCPG server :
Under windows :
Démarrer le service becpg-tc-server
Under linux :
/etc/init.d/inst1 start
