Backing Up the Reporting and Analysis File System

  To back up the file system:

1. After installing Reporting and Analysis, back up these directories:

   • EPM_ORACLE_HOME/products/biplus

   • EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE/config/ReportingAnalysis

   • EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE/ReportingAnalysis

   • EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE/bin/ReportingAnalysis

   • EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE/products/biplus

   • Any directories that you specified for Reporting and Analysis files if you did not accept the defaults during installation and configuration.

2. Perform weekly full or daily incremental backups of these items:

   • (Windows only) Templates, styles, palettes, and components in EPM_ORACLE_HOME/products/biplus/DDS

   • Custom development resources, such as dashboards and scripts

   • Any custom components, scripts, and version-controlled data

   • EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE/diagnostics/logs/ReportingAnalysis

   • For EPM Workspace modules, Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management Workspace search index files in EPM_ORACLE_HOME/common/raframeworkrt/11.1.2.0/wsearch

   • EPM_ORACLE_HOME/common/raframeworkrt/11.1.2.0/wsearch

   • Repository Manager location

     Note:

     This location (EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE/ReportingAnalysis/data/RM1 by default) is set during Reporting and Analysis configuration.

3. Back up ANDALE fonts (ANDALE*.ttf) in C:/Windows/Fonts (Windows) or EPM_ORACLE_HOME/products/biplus/fonts (UNIX).

   In a UNIX environment, Oracle recommends backing up the entire folder, because it contains fonts.dir in addition to ANDALE*.ttf files.
