Performing the Backup
Code Insight 6.14.2 SP1
To perform a backup, perform the following steps.
To perform a backup, do the following:
|
1.
|
The Code Insight Core Server and all Scan Servers must be stopped to perform the backup. |
|
•
|
If you have a multi-Scan Server environment, perform these steps for each Scan Server. |
|
2.
|
Copy or tar/zip the <CODE_INSIGHT_USER_HOME> directory. |
|
•
|
This directory contains the client logs and Detector client properties used by Code Insight. |
|
•
|
If you have a multi-Scan Server environment, perform these steps for each Scan Server. |
|
3.
|
Copy or tar/zip the <CODE_INSIGHT_ROOT_DIR> directory. |
|
•
|
This directory contains all the components of the Code Insight system. |

|
If you have a multi-Scan Server environment, perform these steps for each Scan Server. |
|
4.
|
Copy or tar/zip the workspaces directory. |
|
•
|
The workspaces directory is defined in the <CODE_INSIGHT_USER_HOME>/scanEngine/scanEngine.properties file. Search for the workspaceBaseDirPath parameter. Typically, this would be located in <CODE_INSIGHT_ROOT_DIR>/workspaces. |
|
•
|
This is only necessary if the workspaces directory has been defined outside of the <CODE_INSIGHT_ROOT_DIR>. |
|
•
|
This directory contains all of the workspace data and metadata. |

If you have a multi-Scan Server environment, perform these steps for each Scan Server. |
