Backup Settings In Frontend

Backup Settings In Frontend

In the latest version of 8.5r5, we have the backup option configurable in the front end. Does this backup only the dashboards and other vienna objects or it backsup the config files like logstash aswell. Also how do we recover these backup files that is created.

ANS - The current backup system can take the backup of the following configurations
  • vuSmartMaps Objects:
    Analytics configurations for storyboards, visualizations, reports, alert rules etc.
  • Data Sources and Integrations:
    Configuration information for all currently configured data sources in the system.
  • Service Configuration files:
    Configuration settings for all vuSmartMaps internal components.
  • ETL Configuration:
    Data processing pipeline configurations.
  • Active Data:
    Active Data currently residing in the system. Use this option with caution, as this might result in a large backup file getting created.
  • User Info
    All user and bookkeeping information. Eg: MySQL database backup
The backups can be stored in remote storage or local storage. You can look into the paths where you configured the backup destination to recover the configurations. As of now, we don’t have a restore option available in the front-end.

ETL Configuration include our logstash conf.d and tables folder in both shipper and analyzers.
