Back Up Location Intelligence Module named resources and data
Although part of the Spectrum upgrade installation process for the Location Intelligence Module is to automatically back up the data from a previous release before the upgrade continues, it is important to back up custom data sources and resources prior to upgrading using the limrepo export command in the Administration Utility (see the Administration section of the Spectrum Spatial Guide for instructions).
Any data that was installed with the module will be deleted after
upgrade. If custom data is located in the same directories, back it up and copy to the
same location in the Spectrumâ„¢ Technology Platform directories once upgraded. Pay
special attention to any data or resources that have been added to default locations
within the %install_home%\Spectrum\server\modules\spatial\
directory,
as these will be deleted after upgrade. For example, if you have used the default
TileCache directory for generating your map tiles, back it up, and copy to the same
location once upgraded.
It is also very important to perform a backup of the repository after
the Spectrumâ„¢ Technology Platform upgrade is successful, to serve as a baseline in
case your repository becomes corrupt later on. If you are upgrading from 9.0 SP3, there
are significant changes to the repository that will render previous backups ineffective.
Make a copy of the entire repository located in the
%install_home%\Spectrum\server\modules\spatial\jackrabbit
directory,
and save it to a secure location.
