When to Perform a Backup

You must create backups your Broker Server regularly. The frequency of these backups depends on the dynamic nature of your metadata. For example, if you have explicit-destroy clients whose subscriptions change often, you might want to perform routine backups more frequently than if client subscriptions are fairly static.

In addition to performing a regular backup, it is critical that you back up your Broker Server immediately after making any of the following changes:

Adding a new Broker

Adding, deleting, or modifying document types

Adding, deleting, or modifying client groups

Creating territories or changing their membership

Changing ACL assignments

Adding, deleting, or modifying a gateway

Changing the keystore location, password, or Broker Server SSL identity
