BackUp-ing an RQM project

Hi Sany,

You can use the Jazz Team Server repotools utility to export the entire contents of your RQM database to a TAR file, which can later be imported on the same or a different server. Details here: Getting Started with Repository Migration.

Does that address your use case?

If you're talking non-production demo-style back-ups and you're using Derby, then a really simple approach is to just copy the "repositoryDB" directory in /server. That directory is the Derby DB.
Again, I want to reiterate this is for the simple back-up scenario you describe.
Enterprise DB backups in DB2, Oracle, or SQL Server should be used in production environments and the repotools process that Patrick outlined should be used as portable backup (DB/machine agnostic) and as part of the upgrade process when data migration is required.

Hello to all,

I'm using RQM2.0 on a laptop computer to make all my external demonstration. In order to avoid reinstalling the entire RQM server in case of laptop crash (already happened...), i would like to back-up my RQM project in order to reinstall it if necessary on another computer.

I've fetched a little bit in the RQM help but haven't find anything.

I'm using RQM2.0 with its own Derby database.


Thank you for your answers,
Sany

Hi all,

Thank you for your answers, we've tried both technics, and both of them work. I think that for our demos, we will use the recording of the repositoryDB.


Thank you for your help,
