Server Backup & Restore

Backup

Stop the running KeyShield SSO server (by stopping the KeyShieldSSO service on Windows, or on Linux with ¨systemctl stop kshield.service¨ or ¨rckshield stop¨ on older distributions).

From the folder where the KeyShield server is installed (typically C:\KeyShieldSSO, or /opt/tdp/kshield), copy and backup the following folders/files:

  •  db
  •  files
  •  keys
  •  license
  •  configuration.properties
  •  optionally, if custom modifications have been created in resources, also the custom subdirectory, from the resources folder.

Restore

Install the KeyShield SSO server in the standard way, but do not start the server at the end of the
installation (or if it did start, stop it again).

Overwrite the corresponding folders/files in the installation location with the folders/files you previously backed up.

Start the KeyShield SSO server (by starting the KeyShieldSSO service on Windows, or on Linux
with ¨systemctl start kshield.service¨ or ¨rckshield start¨ on older distributions).
