Recovering an offline backup

To recover a backup that is taken from an offline system, you must restore the databases in your system and copy the files that you backed up into their original locations.

Procedure

  1. Ensure that any application servers are stopped.
    To stop the application server for the Analysis Repository, run the following command:
    setup -s onyx-server -t stop
    To stop the application server for the Information Store, run the following command:
    setup -s opal-server -t stop
  2. Restore the databases in your system by following the instructions for your database management system.
  3. Copy the backups of the following items into their original locations:
    • The data directory for i2 Analyze.
    • The Lucene index directories for the Analysis Repository.
    • The Solr and ZooKeeper directories for the Information Store.
    • The i2 Analyze deployment toolkit configuration files.
    • The home directory for WebSphere Application Server Liberty profile.
    • The configuration files for the HTTP reverse proxy.
  4. Start the application servers for your system.
    To start the application server for the Analysis Repository, run the following command:
    setup -s onyx-server -t start
    To start the application server for the Information Store, run the following command:
    setup -s opal-server -t start
  5. Start, or restart, the HTTP server that hosts the reverse proxy.

Results

After the application servers start, the system is ready for use.
