Hi everyone,
I want to compress all the databases on my server, then make a backup. Could anyone give some suggestions how to make a zip file for database?
Thanks a lot
Hi,
as far as I know, .adb backups are already zipped. Inside they are mostly XML, which is then zipped and most likely encrypted, if your administrator so wishes. So this file format is already optimally compact and not compressible.
A very convenient way of doing a backup of all databases is the "backup tenant" command in ACC, which not only stores all your databases in the "ABS" application, but also all the other data and configuration, which is part of your tenant. Consult the "ARIS Tenant Management.pdf" on this topic. You find it on the installation media. The resulting file is also compressed. Please check, if this command can also be used to backup just the ABS application. This would contain all the databases.
There may also be the Tenant Management tool, where you can configure scheduled tenant backups. You reach it via https://your.aris.server/tm
You need very special administration privileges to access that. Please find a description in the same document.
