•
Back up HP OpenView 6.2 databases
•
Save Sybase 12.5.0.1 and HP OpenView databases to tape

The Technical Assistance Center (TAC) strongly recommends that you perform daily
backups of the Sybase cascview database. For more information on Sybase 12.5.0.1
backup procedures, see the
Configuration Guide Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise
for UNIX
.
Note –
Lucent recommends that you periodically test the integrity of Sybase and HP
OpenView backups by loading the backups on a separate test Sun workstation. Also,
Lucent recommends testing the recovery of switch data in the “cascview” database to
ensure that it loads properly. Contact the Technical Assistance Center for specific
instructions. See
“Technical Support”

Note –
You can use scripts to perform backups automatically. However, Lucent does
not provide these scripts. These scripts are left to your discretion.
