Backup and Restore<br />
To Restore a <strong>Spotfire</strong> <strong>Server</strong><br />
Note: To perform a restore of a backup, you must restore to the same OS architecture<br />
the backup is from. If this is not possible, you must reinstall the <strong>Spotfire</strong> <strong>Server</strong> using<br />
the installer.<br />
It is recommended that you also restore a <strong>Spotfire</strong> <strong>Server</strong> to a machine with the same<br />
IP adddress and hostname as the old one. This will ensure that any network issues,<br />
such as firewall settings etc, will work smoothly after a restore. Overall, you may want<br />
to try to create the restored system as similar as possible to the old one, for similar<br />
reasons.<br />
Below is a step-by-step instruction for restoring <strong>Spotfire</strong> <strong>Server</strong> software.<br />
1 Restore the backup of to the same physical path on the<br />
machine as on the old.<br />
2 If running on Windows and starting the <strong>Spotfire</strong> <strong>Server</strong> using a Windows Service, run<br />
the script<br />
/tomcat/bin/service.bat install<br />
See the section “For Windows, with Windows Service” on page 48 for more<br />
information about the Windows Service.<br />
3 If running or Solaris, Redhat, or SuSe, and starting the <strong>Spotfire</strong> <strong>Server</strong> automatically<br />
after reboot, run the script<br />
/tomcat/install_startup_script.sh<br />
or copy the script tss to the right place. See the section “For Solaris, Red Hat, and<br />
SUSE” on page 49 for more information about this.<br />
If you are using any authentication such as Kerberos or Client Certificates, you may<br />
also have to set up this anew.<br />
10.4 Disaster Recovery<br />
In the event of a disaster, where you have no valid backups available, you should think<br />
of the following:<br />
• Without a valid backup of the <strong>Spotfire</strong> Database, you will not be available to<br />
restore your <strong>Spotfire</strong> system to its previous state. You must therefore have a<br />
valid and current backup of your <strong>Spotfire</strong> Database.<br />
• Without a valid backup of the <strong>Spotfire</strong> <strong>Server</strong>(s), you can restore your <strong>Spotfire</strong><br />
system to its previous state by installing a new <strong>Spotfire</strong> <strong>Server</strong>, adding it to the<br />
cluster (stored in the database), and configuring it anew.<br />
