Configuring a Backup Repository
About this task
A repository is a folder, network location, or cloud location where you store the data backup files. The default repository that comes with the API Gateway installation is located at SAGInstallDir/InternalDataStore/archives. This repository is called default. However, you can create additional repositories for backup storage based on your requirements.
Configure the required repositories using the configure command. You can configure more than one repository in one Elasticsearch instance with unique names. You can specify the required repository name using the repoName parameter when performing backup and restore operations.
