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 4.8, InfoPrint Manager backs up several files in the /tmp/IPMSAVE directory by adding a .bak qualifier to each file.

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

/usr/lpp/pd/bin/ipm_print

Once you have completed installing the latest InfoPrint Manager version, you can edit the .bak files in the /tmp/IPMSAVE directory to begin moving your customized changes into the new files that reside in the directories listed above.

Note: Because the new configuration files have different source material, you cannot copy the .bak files over the new configuration files.
