ArcGIS Enterprise: Backing up the ArcGIS Datastore

Published Date

Hey GeoSnappers! Do you use ArcGIS Enterprise as part of your daily GIS operations? One of the four core components of ArcGIS Enterprise is the ArcGIS Data Store, which plays a critical role in storing and managing your organization's data. To help protect against data loss caused by system failures, corruption, or unexpected outages, ArcGIS Data Store automatically creates scheduled backups. However, there are times when administrators need to manually create backups or move backups to a different storage location. In this video, you'll learn how to: ✅ Inspect the health and status of ArcGIS Data Store using command-line utilities ✅ Change the ArcGIS Data Store backup location ✅ Create a manual backup on demand ✅ Improve your disaster recovery and backup management strategy Whether you're a GIS administrator, system administrator, or ArcGIS Enterprise professional, these commands can help you better manage and protect your deployment. 0:00 – Intro 0:36 – Change backup location 1:44 – Taking a manual backup 2:06 – Outro ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About ArcGIS Enterprise ► Product Page https://www.esri.com/en-us/arcgis/products/arcgis-enterprise/overview ► Blogs https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-enterprise ► Esri Community https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise/ct-p/arcgis-enterprise ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About GeoSnaps | Videos by Esri Canada      ► A collection of bite-sized technical videos about all things in the ArcGIS universe.      ► Have a suggestion for a GeoSnap?  Email us at geosnaps@esri.ca     ► Be sure to subscribe to our channel and hit the notification bell to stay up-to-date with the latest tutorials and technical inspiration: https://www.youtube.com/user/esricanadatv      ------------------------------------------------------------------------------  Want more from Esri Canada?    ► Sign up for our email and select ‘Getting Technical’ under Esri Canada Blog Digests to receive the latest in your inbox: https://pages.esri.ca/Esri-Canada-Preference-Centre.html
