Hi TM1 Gurus,
I am looking for an automated way to backup my DB folder in the IBM cloud down to a local drive in my organisation.
I'm struggling to think of a suitable method, if I was On Premise it would be a simple case of writing a CMD script and running ExecuteCommand… any recommendations on how I can do the same in cloud?

Re: IBM Cloud backup to local drive
As part of IBM Cloud you have access to Cognos Command Centre which can be used to automatically schedule FTPS file transfer from IBM Cloud to Local Filestore.
A lot depends on what you really want to 'do'; synchronise, backup, disaster recovery etc..

Re: IBM Cloud backup to local drive
What I did is to write a TI to invoke a Powershell script (yes, it is available in Cloud PA environment), copy to a backup folder and compress it.
On-premise we have a scheduled task to initiate a FTPS client request to pull the compressed backup back to local site.
Simple setup and do not need to involve Cognos CMD Centre.
