Import and Export¶
The Solution Manager provides a convenient way of backing up its configuration and restore it if necessary.
Note
Only global administrators can back up and restore the configuration of the Solution Manager.
To create a backup, click the root of the catalog tree () and click Export.
A new popup will show up, in which you can optionally specify a custom password that will be used to encrypt sensitive data in the export.
A backup includes the following elements:
Environments basic information.
Environments deployments configuration and deployments scripts.
Virtual DataPort properties assigned to the environments.
Clusters basic information.
Scheduler properties assigned to the clusters.
Servers basic information for standard environments.
User-defined load balancing variables and the values assigned to clusters and servers in standard environments.
Version Control System configuration.
Informative message.
Automated mode configuration for AWS.
Permissions.
Authentication configuration.
Roles, users and global properties that do not depend on the environment.
It does not include:
Revisions.
Deployments.
Database configuration.
License usages.
Monitor log files.
A backup is a JSON file.
To restore a backup, click the root of the tree area and click Import. A new popup will show up, click it and select the file you want to restore.
Important
If you specified a custom password to encrypt the data in the export process, you will need to provide the same password in the import process.
If the selected file contains environments that already exist, you can decide if you want to replace them or not.
Important
If the import file contains a cloud cluster, this cluster is created in pending status. You will need to recreate the cloud cluster in the Managing Clusters screen after the import process.
