If you back up tenants manually or use a scheduled backup, the current state of the following data is saved in backup lists.
Tenant data is fully backed up only if the user executing the commands has sufficient privileges for all components in every tenant and if all components were selected for the backup. Extensions, for example, SSL certificates, SAP® Java Connector, and JDBC drivers, added using the enhance ACC command are not backed up. In ARIS 10 all started runnables are automatically taken into account when executing tenant backup/restore commands.

Component (runnable)
Data from ARIS Administration,
for example, users, privileges.
User statistics are not includes by default. If you want to include the user statistics, the property User statistics in backup (com.aris.umc.user.statistics.backup) must be enabled in the configuration (see ARIS help: ARIS Administration > Configuration > User management > Security > Advanced settings).

User administration audit events are not part of the tenant backup.
The user superuser and users to which the required privileges are assigned by the user superuser can manage tenants.
If users with appropriate privileges start Tenant Management, they do this as the user superuser. This is facilitated by the Impersonation function privilege, which is assigned to relevant users on the infrastructure tenant.
No user can work on this tenant during the restore process. All current data of a running tenant will be deleted and replaced by the data of the backup file. Data related to ARIS Administration will not be deleted but merged. The tenant name and current user data will be untouched. If users were deleted after the tenant has been backed up, these users will be available again. Make sure to delete those users.
Process Governance backup archives greater than 2 GB might lead to insufficient TEMP space issue when restoring them into ARIS with Oracle back end. For such large backups, extend the temp tablespace size before restoring operation executed.
To avoid data inconsistencies and possible data loss, you must not perform any of the following activities in parallel, neither manually nor scheduled:
- Deleting any Process Governance process instance, process version, or process
- Archiving Process Governance process instances
- Backup/restore tenant (containing Process Governance or ARIS document storage data)
Procedure
Click Tenants.
At the end of the row for the tenant, click More > Restore. A warning is displayed.
Click OK in the Warning dialog. The Restore tenant dialog opens.
Select Backup.
Select the relevant backup based on the description and the backup date.
Text that was entered when creating the backup or the schedule.
During the backup, all components whose data has been backed up is added to the description in square brackets.
Move the mouse over the individual entries to show a description. The description lists all components whose data has been backed up in square brackets. You can find the relevant backup using the description and the timestamp.
Click Next.
Select the content to be restored.
Click OK.
The tenant is restored. All data is overwritten with the data version from the backup. Administrators can restore manually backed up data.

If you have restored a tenant from an ARIS 10 SR5 backup file or earlier containing ARIS document storage data, you must adjust the timestamps manually (see y-admintool.bat command-line tool).
