Learn about how to back up your MobileFirst Analytics data.
The data for MobileFirst Analytics is stored as a set of files on the MobileFirst Analytics Server file system. The location of this folder is specified by the datapath JNDI property in the MobileFirst Analytics Server configuration. For more information about the JNDI properties, see Configuration properties.
The MobileFirst Analytics Server configuration is also stored on the file system, and is called server.xml.
You can back up these files by using any existing server backup procedures that you might already have in place. No special procedure is required when you back up these files, other than ensuring that the MobileFirst Analytics Server is stopped. Otherwise, the data might change while the backup is occurring, and the data that is stored in memory might not yet be written to the file system. To avoid inconsistent data, stop the MobileFirst Analytics Server before you start your backup.
