A full backup contains all the runtime artifacts required to restore the service instance’s configuration data.
Specifically, a full backup contains these items:
The Oracle WebLogic Server domain configuration of the service instance, which consists of these items:
The $DOMAIN_HOME volume of each virtual machine
Managed Server persistent stores that are not stored in the database are stored under $DOMAIN_HOME. Examples of Managed Server persistent stores are transaction logs and Java Message Service (JMS) providers.
Oracle WebLogic Server domain configuration files in the $MW_HOME volume of the Administration Server virtual machine
Oracle Traffic Director configuration for the load balancer
Note:
Oracle SOA Cloud Service does not back up any software, including Oracle Fusion Middleware software installed on the $MW_HOME volume. You are responsible for ensuring that you can re-install any software that you have installed on a service instance’s VMs if necessary.
