Backing Up Before Restoring an ADM Session

This command backs up the target environment's current application settings that will be updated by the ADM package referenced in the command. This process normally occurs automatically during the restore command (as specified in the enterprise profile), but running it separately reduces the deployment time.

To back up target environment before restoring an ADM package

• At the ADM command-line prompt, enter:

  deploy_enterprise_name backup username password package_name

  where:

  • enterprise_name is the name of the Siebel Enterprise Server.
  • username is the Siebel user name.
  • password is the Siebel password.
  • package_name is the name of the XML ADM package file.

    This command can also use the following optional flags as described in Table 8 and Table 9.
