Backing up and restoring EP 7.0 (With Usage type DI installed) on HP-UX

[Former Member]

Hello,

I know and saw several blogs/forums for Portal/Java WebAS 640 backup and restore and most of them says to backup Oracle and backup filesystems (/usr/sap/SID/* and /sapmnt/SID/* and ofcourse oracle).

WE have never tested our restore on our Portal system which has DI (Dev Infrastructure) installed with it, hence need to know is it just enough to backup the above files systems (and also /home/sidadm and /etc) AND then just restore the oracle backup, and above files systems and system will be up and running with all the DI developments we did?

We are about to apply our first round of Stacks on EP system (NW04s) with DI usage type, hence we want to test our restore if everything goes fine in case we have to do that.

Our env:

EP/DI on HP UX - currently going to stack 15

Oracle on AIX

Your response is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

we tried to just restore the Filesystem and database and without any efforts we were able to startup java.
