Persistent volume data replication for disaster recovery

Certain folders in the persistent volumes must be replicated to the disaster recovery site.

Gateway Server

With the introduction of dynamic persistent volumes, the names of the persistent volumes cannot be predetermined. To identify the persistent volumes, see the persistent volume claims that show the corresponding persistent volumes.

Replicate the folders used by Gateway Server. Include the following folders in the replication to the disaster recovery site.
Table 1. Gateway Server folders
Persistent volume claim Folders
<ftm-instance>-application applications/gateway-server/lib
<ftm-instance>-gateway runtime-processing

Business Rules Server and Business Rules Manager

The Business Rules Server and Business Rules Manager have common user data and intermediate folders that need to be replicated.
