Database Backup Utility Location
In this appendix, the term “<install_dir>” represents the directory where you
installed ISM Provision.
For Windows installations, the backup utility is found in the following location:
<install_dir>\sybase\SQL Anywhere7\win32\dbbackup.exe
or if ISM Provision was installed in the default location:
c:\Program Files\Extreme Networks\ISM Provision\sybase\SQL Anywhere7\win32
For Solaris installations the backup utility is found in the following location:
<install_dir>/sybase/SYBSsa7/bin/dbbackup
or if ISM Provision was installed in the default location:
/opt/extreme/ismprov/sybase/SYBSsa7/bin
Using the Database Backup Utility
To back up the ISM Provision database running under Windows, use the command:
<install_dir>\sybase\SQL Anywhere7\win32\dbbackup -c
"uid=DBA;pwd=SQL;dbf=<install_dir>\server\database\ismp.db" <backup_dir>
Under Solaris, use the command:
<install_dir>/database/dbbackup -c
"uid=DBA;pwd=SQL;dbf=<install_dir>/server/database/ismp.db" <backup_dir>
This assumes a database user ID of DBA, with password SQL. These are the defaults used
when the database server is installed through the ISM Provision installation process. If
you have changed your database user ID and password, substitute your actual user ID
and password in the command.
<
install_dir> is the directory where the ISM Provision software is installed.
Substitute the actual directory name in the command.
<
backup_dir> is the directory where the backup copy of the database should be stored.
Substitute an actual directory name in the command.
