Backing up Maximo Monitor

If Maximo Monitor is deployed on IBM Cloud® , Amazon Web Services, or an on-premises environment, you back up MongoDB and the namespace for Maximo Monitor.

Before you begin

• Before you back up Maximo Monitor, you need to back up the IoT tool. For more information, see Backing up the IoT tool.
• 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

Maximo Monitor depends on the IoT tool. Because they share a relational database, you don't need to back up the relational database for Maximo Monitor separately.

You can back up Maximo Monitor by using manual steps.
