Backup Admin properties

System property

Default value

Description

mbs.backupadmin

true

If set to "false", the Backup Admin Service will be disabled.

mbs.backupadmin.aliases

Specifies a properties file. It contains mapping from a symbolic name of the bundle to its all known old symbolic names, for which the backup/restore mechanism is applicable. This file makes sense to be used, when a client has made a backup of his proprietary software and wants to make a restore on a newer version of the software with changed symbolic names of the bundles, registering the BackupProvider in his software. This descriptive approach adapts the client software without any changes in its source code.

The key of this properties file is the bundle symbolic name in the current product and the values are the old bundle symbolic names, whose backup has to be supported, separated with comma. The value of the property is considered relative to the current directory, where the server is started – by default it is bin/vms/{vm}.

mbs.backupadmin.listener.port

23174

Specifies the server socket port used by the Backup Admin Service for externally triggered backup.

mbs.backupadmin.autobackup.file

Specifies the name of the file used by the Backup Admin Service to store/import backup data.

mbs.backupadmin.autobackup.notifyOnNoData

false

If set to "true", the restore() method of a BackupProvider service will be called with a null parameter.

mbs.backupadmin.autorestore.always

false

If set to "true", automated data restore will be executed on each framework startup.

mbs.backupadmin.op.timeout

30000

Specifies the timeout in milliseconds for executing the backup and restore operations. In case the backup and restore processes take more than the specified time, an ERROR message is logged.

mbs.backupadmin.autobackup.restoreOnly

false

If set to "true", the listening of the autobackup functionality for a socket on the given port is disabled.

mbs.backupadmin.cacheRestoreData

Disabled

When performing restore operation, enables caching of input stream data, in order to allow subsequently registered backup providers to be restored.
