Backing up InfoPrint Manager for Linux

If you want to back up InfoPrint Manager for Linux, you should back up these directories:

  • /ipdata (if used)
  • /usr/lpp/psf/config
  • Any file systems that begin with the path /var/pd/*
  • /var/pddir
  • Any file systems that begin with the path /var/psf/*
  • /var/spool/lpd
In addition, these individual files should be backed up:
  • /var/lib/pd/fst.ports
  • /etc/rc.pd.servers
  • /etc/services

When you install InfoPrint Manager for Linux, InfoPrint Manager backs up several files in the /tmp/InfoPrintManager-<IPM_VERSION>-baklist-<DATE>.tar.gz archive. The archive operation output is recorded to /tmp/InfoPrintManager-<{IPM_VERSION>-baklist-<DATE>.log. If you are reinstalling InfoPrint Manager, both files are moved to the /var/pd/baklist directory.

This list provides the full default path names for commonly modified files:

Once you have completed installing the latest InfoPrint Manager version, you can extract your customized files from the archive to begin moving your customized changes into the new files that reside in the directories listed above.

Note: Because the new configuration files may have different source material, it is not recommended to copy the files from the archive over the new configuration files.
