General:
This document describes the procedures
for backing up and restoring all vital information
for the CockpIT administrated server `environment.
CockpIT is mission critical software that
runs applications that are critical to an
enterprise. Proper backup of CockpIT settings
and data are crucial for disaster recovery.
The backup process is as simple and easy
as creating a copy of all essential information.
There are no open files or special databases.
There are just a few small files to back
up. They are described below.
Files to backup:
Data Folder:
This is CockpIT ‘s main data and settings
folder. It is a sub-folder located under
the main installation path (i.e. C:\Program
Files\Jetro Platforms\CockpIT Server\Data).
All of the XML format files in this database
must be backed up.
Files may be backed up using a normal COPY
procedure. Note: These files are not marked
as open files.
Icons:
The sub-folder called C:\Program Files\Jetro
Platforms\CockpIT Server\Site\Icon must
be backed-up.
CockpIT creates icons for every application
that is installed. Each application has
two corresponding images: a JPEG version
for the web interface and a BMP version
for the Jetro DirectLINK interface.
Registry Settings:
Backing up the registry settings is essential
for restoring CockpIT. The registry contains
licensing and critical configuration information.
Back up the following registry path or export
the following key using the REGEDIT utility:
HKLM\Local Machine\Software\JDS
Client Logo:
CockpIT allows customization of the user
site. Enterprises may replace the Jetro
logo with their own company logo. It is
located in the following path: C:\Program
Files\Jetro Platforms\CockpIT Server\Site\ClientLogo
Reports:
Reports contain records of application usage.
These files are not necessary to restore
the system in case of a disaster, but they
are useful enterprise records.
Excel:
CockpIT saves reports in CSV (comma separated
value) format text files. These files are
located in the following path:
C:\Program Files\Jetro Platforms\CockpIT
Server\Site\Excel
Performance Policy File:
These are the load balancing policy files
for the terminal servers. Every terminal
server has its own copy of a load balancing
policy file. Load balancing policies only
need to be backed up if the system administrator
has customized them.
The load balancing policy file is located
under the main installation folder (e.g.
C:\Program Files\Jetro Platforms\CockpIT
Server\TSAgent)
