Automate Archive process

[Former Member]

Hello Experts:

We are now in production system and I need to bakcup our data every week. I have been doing this manually through by Archiving production repository every week.

Do you know if there is a way to automate this process?

Thank you very much for your help,

I have already submitted a white paper for this.

you can do the following things -

1)Create a .bat file with command as -

cd D:\Progra~1\SAP MDM 5.5\CLIX (Your CLIX folder)

😧

CLIX cpyArchive <MDM Server Name>:<MDM Server Password> <Repository Name>:<Database Server Name>:s:<Repository User>:<Repository User Password> -F u2013D

2) Schedule a Windows Task Schedule to execute this batch file as required.

Reply back if any issue.

Hi Claudia,

The command above will work, but I prefer to know what archives I have and not have to copy them away each day. so add the following to your command

FOR /F "TOKENS=1* DELIMS= " %%A IN ('DATE/T') DO SET CDATE=%%B

FOR /F "TOKENS=1,2 eol=/ DELIMS=/ " %%A IN ('DATE/T') DO SET mm=%%B

FOR /F "TOKENS=1,2 DELIMS=/ eol=/" %%A IN ('echo %CDATE%') DO SET dd=%%B

FOR /F "TOKENS=2,3 DELIMS=/ " %%A IN ('echo %CDATE%') DO SET yyyy=%%B

SET thedate=%yyyy% %mm%%dd%

CLIX cpyArchive <Servername>:<Password> <Repository>:<DatabaseServerName>:s:<DBUsername> <REPUsername>:<REPPassword> -A <Archivename>_%thedate% -N

This names the archive with the date that it was created,

It is still in review process.

But try the options that I have suggested and it will work.
