WebSphere Application.

below are the steps for backup...JTS,RTC andDb2 backup..

Procedure
To back up a DB2 database or other supported database:
1. Stop the Jazz Team Server.
The default Jazz Team Server is Apache Tomcat. For improved performance, scalability, and reliability, you can use WebSphere Application Server.
2. Follow the instructions in your database documentation for backing up the database. In the case of DB2, complete these steps:
a. Locate the Jazz database in DB2.
b. Right-click the Jazz database, and select Backup.
c. For the Media type, select File system, and point to the location for saving the backup.
d. Click Finish.
e. Repeat Steps 2a, 2b, and 2c for CCM and any other databases that you need to back up.
f. Restart the Jazz Team Server.
3. To restore an existing DB2 database with the version that you backed up:
a. Stop theJazz Team Server.
b. Locate the Jazz database in DB2.
c. Right-click the Jazz database, and select Restore.
d. Click Restore to new database.
e. Type a name for the new database.
f. Select the directory that contains the backup.
g. Click Finish.
h. Open the <JazzInstallDir>/server/conf/jts/teamserver.properties file.
i. Replace the name of the Jazz database with the name that you provided in step e, as shown in the following example.
j. #
k. # DB2 configuration
l. #
m.
n. # Comment out above lines, uncomment the following three lines and customize example location to use DB2
o. #com.ibm.team.repository.db.vendor = DB2
p. #com.ibm.team.repository.db.jdbc.location=//localhost:50000/JAZZ:fullyMaterializeLobData=false;user=db2admin;password={password};
#com.ibm.team.repository.db.jdbc.password=db2admin
Note: In the preceding example, the name of the Jazz database is JAZZ.
q. Save your changes.
r. Repeat Steps 3a to 3j for CCM and any other databases that you need to restore.

As answered in your other post there is an article about backup for RTC which in general also works for the other products. Please read that. It also mentions files to back up. There is also help included in the infocentre http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/clmhelp/v3r0m1/index.jsp.

You can do online backups as well as offline backups. In case do an offline backup make sure the application(s) are backed up with the JTS offline as well. Restore points for applications need to be before tor at the same time of the JTS.

You typically don't need to change the teamserver.properties if you restore the database with the same name and location.

Make sure you test your backup and restore in a test system.
