When performing a backup, you need to include all of the following:
- Application Configuration File
- The
starteamserver-configs.xml file needs to be backed up.
It is located in the folder in which you installed
StarTeam Server.
- Database Files
- Backup the database. Each server configuration has one database (or, in the case of Oracle, one schema user).
- Server Configuration Directory
- In the
starteamserver-configs.xml, locate the
value of the
RepositoryPath option. Include everything in that directory. For example:
<option name="RepositoryPath" value="c:\my\server-config\directory-name"/>
In the example, back up everything in
c:\my\server-config\directory-name.
All of these should be backed up at the same time, preferably on the same media.
Important: The server configuration directory should not be backed up until after the database backup completes. These two backups should
not be done simultaneously. This guarantees that everything referenced in the database appears in the server configuration
in the right data location.
