Business Objects Backup with a command-line script

[Former Member]

Hi, We are looking for a command line script to perform a daily backup of the Business Objects configuration, not from the GUI based wizard

Is that possible?

do you mean to create BIAR file?

for XI R2 there is nothing like that , you can not create a command line script to generate a BIAR file,

but you can create a command like script to backup the FRS and the Database Schema, and this should be enough.

in XI 3.0 there is an option can let you export a BIAR file using command line using java SDK

find this please

Hi Ramesh,

You can get this in the Administration Guide (http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/xi3-1_bip_admin_en.pdf). The section is BIAR command line tool
