Restoring the Maximo Application Suite core namespace in Red Hat OpenShift

How you restore resources in Maximo® Application Suite core and which configurations you restore depend on your environment and how you created the data backup. You can apply the configurations for Maximo Application Suite core by using a command for every file or by using the script.

About this task

If a custom ClusterIssuer is used, you must specify the value at installation.

If IBM® Suite License Service is deployed and configured, you must specify the license file and ID that is backed up.

The Maximo Application Suite installation applies the necessary IBM Cloud Pak® foundational services dependencies.

If manual certificates are enabled, when you restore Maximo Application Suite core, you must apply the .yaml file backup of the secret {{ instanceId }}-cert-public file.

For more information about when to apply the MongoCfg, BasCfg, and SlsCfg configurations, see When to apply the backed up configurations.

Procedure

  • To restore manually, use the oc cli -f <filename> command to restore the resources that you backed up.
    The command applies the configuration that is specified to the *.yaml file that is provided by using -f <filename>.
  • To restore the Maximo Application Suite core namespace, use the script mascore-backup-restore.sh.

    The mascore-backup-restore.sh script runs the oc apply command on all the *.yaml files that are in a specified folder.

    To access the script, go to mascore-backup-restore.sh.
