Configuration backup and restoration

After a configuration change, such as when you create a profile, configure a deployment environment, or install an application, back up the configuration data of the primary environment. Then verify whether the configuration change can be restored successfully in the secondary environment.


Procedure

To verify the data for this scenario:

  1. After a configuration change, create a snapshot of the environment.
  2. Restore the snapshot to the secondary environment.

  3. To verify the secondary environment, start the whole environment independently, and make sure the secondary environment does not share any resources with the primary environment.


Results

After you verify the data, you should discover that the configuration changes are still valid in the secondary environment.


What to do next

You can now safely take a snapshot of the configuration changes, because configuration changes are protected through the backup and restoration procedure.
