The archiving procedure that is described in this article only works with MySQL databases. See Exporting and Importing Your DataStore for information on exporting and importing data into Oracle and SQL databases.

This article describes how to retrieve DataStore data that was automatically archived by up.timeUptime Infrastructure Monitor, based on your configured archive policy.

Archived data can only be restored by the same version of

...

Uptime Infrastructure Monitor that was used to create it.

...

You can configure up.time Uptime Infrastructure Monitor to selectively archive data in the DataStore. Each month, up.time Uptime Infrastructure Monitor checks the DataStore to determine if the data is older than the specified archive period. The archived data is moved into a directory named archives under the base \ninstallation installation directory.

...

If up.time If Uptime Infrastructure Monitor discovers data that is older than the archive \nperiodperiod, the data is copied out of the database and saved as a compressed XML file. The name of this file consists of the type of data that was archived and the date on which the data was archived. For example, a file containing file system capacity data that was archived on June \n1212, 2010 has the following file name:

...

performance_fscap_2010-06-12.xml.gz
