backup

Use the backup command to back up the configuration. Enter this command any time after creating clustered system (system).

Syntax

 svcconfig   backup    [  -quiet  ]   [  -v  {  on  |  off  } ]

Parameters

-quiet
Suppresses standard output (STDOUT) messages from the console.
-von | off
Displays normal (off, the default state) or verbose (on) command messages.

Description

The backup command extracts and stores configuration information from the system. The backup command produces the svc.config.backup.xml, svc.config.backup.sh, and svc.config.backup.log files, and saves them in the /tmp folder. The .xml file contains the extracted configuration information; the .sh file contains a script of the commands used to determine the configuration information; and the .log file contains details about command usage.
Note: If a previous svc.config.backup.xml file exists in the /tmp folder, it is archived as svc.config.backup.bak; only one archive file is stored in the /tmp folder.

The underscore character (_) prefix is reserved for backup and restore command usage; do not use the underscore character in any object names.
