Define backup folder

By default, backups are stored in the ARIS Server installation directory (..\server\bin\work\work_umcadmin_<s, m, or l>\backup). Define a different folder on a physical drive in order to keep data update-proof. As the default backup folder is overwritten by the update, all backups are lost.

Prerequisite

You have access to ARIS Cloud Controller (ACC)

Procedure

  1. Start ARIS Cloud Controller (ACC).

  2. Enter, for example: reconfigure umcadmin_m JAVA-Dtm.backup.folder = "C://backups"

    If you have blanks or special characters in the path, you must put it in quotes and use a double backslash instead of a single slash.

    Make sure to use a physical drive. Mapped drives cannot be accessed.

  3. Exit ACC.

All backup files are saved in the backups subfolder on drive C.
