This instruction describes how to create a manual backup of a particular type, as defined in the backup manager, to be stored in a particular directory of the user file system.
2 Procedure
2.1 Create Backup
Prerequisites
- No documents are required.
- No tools are required.
- The following condition must apply:
- No other backup operation is in progress.
- The backup type is known.
- The backup name is known.
- An Ericsson Command-Line Interface (ECLI) session in Exec mode is in progress.
Steps
- Navigate to the BrmBackupManager managed object, for example:
>dn ManagedElement=NODE06ST,SystemFunctions=1,BrM=1,BrmBackupManager=SYSTEM_DATA
- Start the backup operation, for example:
(BrmBackupManager=SYSTEM_DATA)>createBackup PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140428_175907
- Note:
- The <Backup Name> can be maximum of 50 characters. The alphanumeric, dash, and underscore
characters are supported. If no name is given, the name will be automatically
generated in the following format: <manualBackupName>_<year>-<month>-<day>T<hour>:<minute>:<second>.
To cancel the creation of a manual backup, type in cancelCurrentAction.
The system returns output true or false.
- Verify that the backup was created:
(BrmBackupManager=SYSTEM_DATA)>show progressReport
- Note:
- Since this is a long-running operation, it can be necessary to enter the command several times until the final operation result is shown in the progress report.
After a backup is successfully created, the progress report shows the following:
[...] actionName="CREATE" additionalInfo="Create Backup for PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140428_175907:⇒ Succeeded" progressInfo="" progressPercentage=100 result=SUCCESS resultInfo="PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140428_175907 was created ⇒ successfully." state=FINISHED [...]
If an error occurs during the execution of the operation, attribute reportProgress shows result=FAILURE and resultInfo shows the cause of the failure.
