Restoring Maximo Predict

You must restore Maximo Manage, and then you restore Maximo Predict and also your Watson Studio and Watson Machine Learning data.

Before you begin

Restore Maximo Manage. For more information, see Restoring and validating Maximo Manage.
You need access to the Red Hat® OpenShift® command-line interface (CLI). Make sure that the oc command is in your path and that you have administrator credentials. For more information, see Getting started with Open Shift CLI.
You need to install the yq command-line interface, which is a lightweight and portable command-line processor for YAML, JSON, and XML. For more information, see yq Quick usage guide.

About this task

Source cluster: The original Red Hat OpenShift cluster from which you took the backup data.
Target cluster: Any Red Hat OpenShift cluster that is different than the source cluster.

The three different ways to restore Maximo Predict are based on different scenarios. For more information, see Backup and restore scenarios overview.

To learn more about how to deploy and undeploy Maximo Predict, see Deploying IBM Maximo Predict and Deactivating and deleting applications.

Procedure

For the crash recovery scenario, restore the Maximo Predict application to the source cluster from which you took the backup data.
1. Undeploy the existing Maximo Predict deployment.
2. Redeploy the Maximo Predict application.
3. Restore the Watson Studio data.
  Import a project in Watson Studio. For more information, see Importing a project (Watson Studio).
4. Restore the Watson Machine Learning data.
  Import spaces and projects in Watson Machine Learning. For more information, see Importing spaces and projects into existing deployment spaces in Watson Machine Learning.
For the disaster recovery scenario, restore the Maximo Predict application to the target cluster, which is different than the source cluster.
1. Install and configure the cluster.
2. Install Maximo Application Suite core.
3. Deploy Maximo Predict.
4. Restore the Watson Studio data.
  Import a project in Watson Studio. For more information, see Importing a project (Watson Studio).
5. Restore the Watson Machine Learning data.
  Import spaces and projects in Watson Machine Learning. For more information, see Importing spaces and projects into existing deployment spaces in Watson Machine Learning.
For the restore data scenario, you can restore Maximo Predict backup data only to the source cluster.
1. Restore the Watson Studio data.
  Import a project in Watson Studio. For more information, see Importing a project (Watson Studio).
2. Restore the Watson Machine Learning data.
  Import spaces and projects in Watson Machine Learning. For more information, see Importing spaces and projects into existing deployment spaces in Watson Machine Learning.
You don’t need to undeploy the existing Maximo Predict deployment.
