  • 1.  Restoration using ssgmigrate

    Posted Sep 27, 2017 08:12 AM

    Hello Guys,

     

    While performing restoration using ssgmigrate, I observed that " custom assertion jars " which are part of image backup doesn't get moved to the desired path of " /opt/SecureSpan/Gateway/runtime/modules/lib ", whereas same is restored when ssgrestore is used.

     

    what options can help in achieving the movement of custom assertion jar using ssgmigrate ?

     

    Thanks,

    Ankush

    Ankush,

    It doesnt look like the -ca flag are built into ssgmigrate.sh 

    If you look at the documentation, 

    Migrate System Data - CA API Gateway - 9.2 - CA Technologies Documentation 

    -db / -config / -os is all that are available.


    Whereas if you look at ssgrestore,

    Restore Gateways - CA API Gateway - 9.2 - CA Technologies Documentation 

    There are additional flags

    -caInclude custom assertions and their associated property files in a custom restore.
    -extInclude all files from the Gateway/runtime/lib/ext directory in the backup image.
    -maInclude modular assertions in a custom restore.
    The following option can be used for a standard or custom restore:
    -esmInclude the Enterprise Service Manager (ESM) in the restore.

     

    I have found that to do this what people have done is simply.

     

    1) ssgmigrate their data.

    2) Use ssgrestore.sh custom restore with the custom restore option like, -ca (for the jar files) 

     

    Thanks..
