1) Create a backup directory (using /data/backup here, but can be any directory):
then change to that directory:
2. Backup the configuration files by running these commands:
a. Host file:
| tar -P --selinux -cvf cbhosts.tar /etc/hosts |
b. Yum files:
| tar -P --selinux -cvf cbyum.tar /etc/yum.repos.d |
c. IP tables:
| tar -P --selinux -cvf cbiptables.tar /etc/sysconfig/iptables |
d. Cb Unified View configuration:
| tar -P --selinux -cvf cbconfig.tar /etc/cb/ |
e. Rsyslog configuration:
| tar -P --selinux -cvf cbrsyslog.tar /etc/rsyslog.conf |
f. Rsyslog.d configuration:
| tar -P --selinux -cvf cbrsyslogd.tar /etc/rsyslog.d/ |
g. Logrotate configuration:
| tar -P --selinux -cvf cblogrotate.tar /etc/logrotate.d/cb-logrotate.conf |
3. Perform a backup of the Postgres Database:
a. Backup configuration:
| pg_dump -C -Fp -f psqldump_config.sql cb -p 5002 |
b. Backup users and groups:
| pg_dumpall -p 5002 --roles-only -f psqlroles.sql |
4. Copy the backup location off to a remote location

a. Hosts file:
b. Yum files:
c. IP table files:
| tar -P -xvf cbiptables.tar |
