backup_xmlinfo
Provides information about Teamcenter volumes defined for a site in XML format. Third-party backup systems require this information for 24x7 hot backup of Teamcenter volumes and databases. The program creates two output files, backup.xml and backup.dtd, in the directory from which the utility is executed. Syntax backup_xmlinfo [-u=user-id {-p=password | -pf=password-file -g=group] -h Arguments -u Specifies the user ID. This is a user with Teamcenter administration privileges. Note If Security Services single sign-on (SSO) is enabled for your server, the -u and -p arguments are authenticated externally through SSO rather than being authenticated against the Teamcenter database. If you do not supply these arguments, the utility attempts to join an existing SSO session. If no session is found, you are prompted to enter a user ID and password. -p Specifies the password. This argument is mutually exclusive with the -pf argument. -pf Specifies the password file. For more information about managing password files, see Manage password files. This argument is mutually exclusive with the -p argument. -g Specifies the group associated with the user. If used without a value, the user's default group is assumed. -h Displays help for this utility. Environment As specified in Setting up a Teamcenter command-line environment. Files As specified in Log files produced by Teamcenter. Restrictions None. Examples Generate backup information for Teamcenter volumes by executing the following command: Copy backup_xmlinfo -u=Tc-admin-user -p=password -g=group The following example illustrates a sample XML output file: Copy
