WARNING
Do not stop the server during a backup or restore operation.
4.3.1. Backing up All Databases
The following procedures describe backing up all of the databases in the directory using the Directory
Server Console and from the command-line.
NOTE
These backup methods cannot be used to back up the data contained by databases on a
remote server that are chained using database links.
4.3.1.1. Backing up All Databases from the Server Console
When backing up databases from the Directory Server Console, the server copies all of the database
contents and associated index files to a backup location. A backup can be performed while the server
is running.
To back up databases from the Directory Server Console, do the following:
1. Select the
Tasks
tab.
2. Click
Back Up Directory Server
.
The
Backup Directory
dialog box opens.
3. Enter the full path of the directory to store the backup file in the

text box, or click

default
, and the server provides a name for the backup directory.
If the Console is running on the same machine as the directory, click
Browse
to select a local
directory.
With the default location, the backup files are placed in
/var/lib/dirsrv/
slapd- instance_name /bak
.

By default, the backup directory name contains the name
of the server instance and the time and date the backup was created (
instance_name-
YYYY_MM_DD_hhmmss
).
4. Click
OK
to create the backup.
4.3.1.2. Backing up All Databases from the Command Line

script works when the server is running or when the server is stopped.
