Impact on Data Synchronization App

When two systems are paired by using the Data Synchronization App, backup signing integrates automatically to maintain trust consistency across systems.

Backup Signing with Data Synchronization App

The Data Synchronization App ensures seamless backup signing by automatically managing and transferring all certificate-related files.
  • Backup signature files are transferred along with backups.
  • Newly generated certificates are automatically synchronized.
  • Rotated certificates are also automatically transferred to maintain trust alignment.
Table 1. Pairing scenarios
Scenario Behavior
Systems already paired Certificates and signatures transfer automatically with backup.
Systems paired after certificates exist Certificates transfer during the pairing process.

Backup verification during restoration with Data Synchronization App

During on-demand restore, failover, or failback operations, the system checks the configuration file at: /opt/qradar/conf/backup-recovery-config.xml

Property: backup-verification-enabled
Table 2. Behavior of backup-verification-enabled property
Value Behavior
true Backup is verified at the time of restore.
false Backup verification is skipped.
This ensures that both Main and Destination systems enforce consistent trust validation policies.
