Scheduling Database Backup

You can create a Scheduler task to back up a database by right-clicking the corresponding database in Modeler:

Select Schedule Database Backup... A dialog is displayed, prompting you to select the storage location for the backup
!le:

The following storage location options are available:

Designer stores the backup !le within Jedox Web Designer. Use the Browse button to de!ne the location and the
name for the backup !le.
File system stores the backup !le on the server's !le system. You must enter a name for the !le. When specifying a
!lename, the extension (.zip) can be omitted. You can also use a !le path in the name, i.e. C:\Users\ Tom
Testuser\Downloads\Biker. Note: the directory must exist when the backup is executed; it will not be created
automatically. The backup directory must also be writable for the user executing the Jedox Tomcat process.
On Linux installations, the path is relative to the installation directory of Jedox.

For example, if you enter BikerBackup in the File Name !eld, your backup !le will appear in the installation directory as
BikerBackup.zip (or BikerBackup_<timestamp>.zip if the date su"x option is selected).

You can set a password to protect the !le. Additionally, you can include the system database and archived !les. By
default, the backup includes CSV !les. If you uncheck this option, the backup is created with binary (.*bin) !les. Note:
backups created with CSV allow transfer between Linux and Windows, while backups created with binary !les are not
transferable.

In the following dialog window you can enter the task name for the job, the job type and de!ne further properties:

↑
Note: the start/stop times are applied in the time zone that the server is in. This time zone may be di#erent
from that of the user who is scheduling the task.

For example, say a Jedox server is physically located in Bucharest (GMT+2). It serves a company located in
Berlin (GMT+1). If a user in Berlin schedules a task to begin at 18:00, the task will begin at 18:00 in Bucharest
(which would be 17:00 in Berlin). For more information, see Time Zones in Jedox.

Click Next. In the dialog windows that follow, you can select the user who is owner of the job and who should receive the
job reports.

After you have !nished the task creation dialog, you will !nd the created task in Scheduler. There you deactivate, activate,
or edit the backup task:
