Paw backup

Post by chewza »

Hi there

I am battling to figure out how to back up my Paw and Pax published content.
I found this link:
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgece ... store.html

However, I can fine the backup.ps1 file anywhere. Have searched the entire folder structure under C:\Program Files\ibm\cognos\tm1_64

Any ideas?

Many thanks!
Chris

When you execute backup.ps1 you should supply the folder to which you want it to back up to.
If not, the script looks to create it in a folder called backup of your PAW folder i.e. one folder back from your scripts e.g. C:\PAW 2.0.39\scripts\backup

It is in your PAW installation not the TM1 installation, in the scripts folder.

You can find it by doing something from the command-line like docker inspect pa-gateway and seeing where the log directory is bound.
