 Hi,

Looking at https://jazz.net/library/article/1272 I found this information:
 
- Fulltext index: there is no way of ensuring a consistent backup of the files of this indexing technology without performing a server shutdown.

Same information at

So to make a backup of Fulltext index a shutdown is necessary.

Hi Anderson,

You can use repotools-<app> -backupJFSIndexes to backup text indices and work item indices and this command must be run with the server online.

See Repository tools command to back up Jazz Foundation Service indexes
