Back up CCS data
This step includes backing up ADAM and CCS settings.
Before you take the backup, make sure to update the
secureConfig.enc
file as shown in the following examples using the ansible-vault edit secureConfig.enc
command:ADAMServer: <ADAMHostName or IP> ADAMPort: <ADAMPort> //Default 3890 apsusername: <ApplicationServerServiceUserName> apspassword: <ApplicationServerServicePassword> Enckeys_PassPhrase: <EncryptionKeyPassword> //Minimum 10 char
Consider the following action items if you want to take a backup from CCS 12.5.1:
- Back up CCSUtil.exe from CCS 12.5.1 that is available at <CCS_install_diir>\Symantec\CCS\Reporting and Analytics\Application Server\
- Replace the existing CCSUtil.exe with the CCSUtil.exe, which is provided in the CCS v12.6 Drop 2 build, available at <CCS_install_diir>\Symantec\CCS\Reporting and Analytics\Application Server\
- Restart the Application Server Service, if required.
ansible-playbook CCS_Backup.yml -e @secureConfig.enc -e 'ccsinstall_path="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Symantec\\CCS\Reporting and Analytics" ccsbackup_path="\\\\Network shared CCSBackup_Folder Path"'
Back up CCS Manager Configurations
This step includes backing up one or more CCS Managers' configuration settings.
Run the following command on the Ansible host to back up a CCS Manager configuration:
ansible-playbook CCS_Manager_Config_Backup.yml -e @secureConfig.enc -e 'ccsinstall_path="C:\\ Program Files (x86)\\Symantec\\CCS\\Reporting and Analytics" ccsbackup_path="\\\\Network_shared_CCSBackup_Folder_Path\\CCSBackup" ccsmanager_host="CCS_Manager_hostname_for_backup"'
Run the following command on the Ansible host to perform a bulk backup of configuration from multiple CCS Managers:
ansible-playbook CCS_Manager_Config_BulkBackup.yml -e @secureConfig.enc -e 'ccsinstall_path="C:\\ Program Files (x86)\\Symantec\\CCS\\Reporting and Analytics" ccsbackup_path="\\\\Network_shared_CCSBackup_Folder_Path\\CCSBackup"'
Note
: Ensure that the network-shared location used for backup is accessible to the Service Account user.
