Create a configuration backup

Backing up a domain configuration is used to ensure fault tolerance and the integrity of system settings. Creating a backup allows you to capture the current state of the configuration before making changes, migrate settings to another environment, and quickly restore domain functionality in the event of failures or incorrect configuration.

To create a configuration backup:

  1. On the Domains tab, click the button next to the corresponding domain and select Configuration backup.
  2. Click the Create backup button.

After you click the button, a task to create a backup is created.

Once the task is completed, the created configuration backup is displayed in the window.

The following actions are available for the created backup:

  • Change the name—Click the Edit button in the Name column and enter a new name.
  • View date and time of creation—the date and time of creation are displayed in the Date/time of creation column in the list of backups.
  • View the number of affected nodes—the number of affected nodes is displayed in the Affected nodes column.
  • Keep a backup—by default, the backup file is saved (a closed lock icon is displayed). If you don't want to save the file, click the lock icon. The icon changes to an open lock , indicating that the saving of the backup file is disabled.
  • Download a backup file—click the Download file button.
  • Restore a backup—click the Restore button. When restoring, the current domain configuration is replaced with the data from the backup.
  • Delete a backup—click the Delete button.

Working with files

The Files tab is used to display the events generated as a result of executing macros in Axxon One.

To view events in the Files tab, you must first do the following:

  1. Create a list of faces or a list of license plates in Axxon Datacenter (see Creating, editing and deleting lists of faces in Axxon Datacenter, Creating, editing and deleting a list of LPs in Axxon Datacenter).
  2. The created lists must be synchronized to the corresponding domain (see Synchronizing a list of faces with the domain in Axxon Datacenter, Synchronizing a list of LPs with the domain and exporting in Axxon Datacenter).
  3. In Axxon One, configure a macro using the specified lists of faces or license plates (see Configuring macros when working with lists of faces, Configuring macros when working with lists of license plates).
  4. Additionally, you must configure in Axxon One:
    1. Email notifier to generate notifications (see Email notifier).
    2. Export agent to transfer data to the cloud solution (see Configuring Export agent).

The events from a macro are displayed in the Files tab as records containing information about the event.

Edit a domain name

To change a domain name in Axxon Datacenter:

  1. On the Domains tab, click the button next to the corresponding domain and select Rename.
  2. Enter a new name and click the Apply button. You can use up to 100 characters in the domain name. If you exceed the number of characters, the message Name too long is displayed.

    To cancel the changes, click the Cancel button.

Editing a domain name in Axxon Datacenter is complete. The domain name changes only in Axxon Datacenter. The name remains the same in Axxon One/Axxon PSIM.
