Archiving the Presentation Server files

For troubleshooting purposes and to restore a working snapshot of the TrueSight Presentation Server, you can create an archive of the TrueSight Presentation Server installation files.

The following table lists the TrueSight Presentation Server installation files that are archived.

File type

Folder

Configuration

 installationDirectory\truesightpserver\conf

Index server data

 installationDirectory\truesightpserver\modules\elasticsearch\data

Log

 installationDirectory\truesightpserver\logs

Database

 installationDirectory\truesightpserver\data\pgsql

Note

It is not necessary for you to create archives regularly unless requested by Customer Support while resolving an issue.

Before running the tssh dump command, ensure that you stop the Presentation Server.

To create an archive

Run the following command from the <Presentation Server installation directory>\truesightpserver\bin folder:

tssh dump export <optional output path>

By default, the archive is created in the <Presentation Server installation directory>\truesightpserver\tmp folder. To specify a custom folder, enter the folder path after tssh dump export.

To import an archive

Run the following command from the <Presentation Server installation directory>\truesightpserver\bin folder:

tssh dump import <archive file path>

The existing files in the TrueSight Presentation Server are backed up and then replaced with the content in the archive file.
