The IBM Storage Protect web client GUI or Java client GUI can be used to back up and archive Domino transaction log files.
Before you begin
You can back up (archive) Domino transaction log files when archival logging is in effect on the Domino server. This option stores filled transaction log files on the IBM Storage Protect server so that space allocated to these files can be reused by the Domino logger.
About this task
Perform these steps to back up Domino transaction log files.
Procedure
-
Click Backup in the IBM Storage Protect web client or the Java client window. If you are not logged in to the server, the IBM Storage Protect Login window opens. Enter the login details and click Login. The Backup window opens.
-
Expand the directory tree under Data Protection for HCL Domino to show your Data Protection for HCL Domino node. The node name is the one that is specified in the IBM Storage Protect options file.
-
Select the Domino server that contains the transaction log files to back up. In a multiple Domino server partition environment, only one Domino server can be archived at a time.
-
Click Archive Log. After processing completes, the Domino Backup Report window opens with processing details, including the size of the backup.
Note: Information about the status of backups is also shown in this window. This indicates whether the backup is compressed or deduplicated, along with information about how many LAN-free bytes were transferred.
