How to Do a Custom System Backup
The above procedure will back up all system data, but sometimes you may want to back up
just a part of the system data. To back up system data, other than transactions, use the
following procedure (it is easier to do this with a command file).
1
Shut down the Site Controller with STOP so that the system data does not change when you
are doing the backup.
2
Use ENABLE RAW to enable raw mode.
3
Use the PRINT commands with the output redirection options to print the data to a backup file.
Refer to
“How to Restore System or Transaction Data”
for examples.
4
Use DISABLE RAW to disable raw mode.
5
Restart the Site Controller with RUN.
