Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Business Analytics Back Up
It is critical that you backup your postgreSQL database, Content Packs, configuration files, logs and configuration settings so that you can rebuild your IT Business Analytics solution and content in circumstances such as the following:
-
When you need to recover from a total disaster recovery scenario.
- Business Analytics server failed but the Vertica Database server is fully functioning
What to Back Up
HPE recommends that you back up the following resources that may be used when one of the above scenarios occurs.
PostgreSQL database:
- Log on to the ITBA server with the user name you used to setup ITBA
- Go to $HPBA_HOME/pgsql/bin
- Run the command ./pg_dump -d xs_mng -U xsadmin > [backup filename, such as /tmp/xs_mng.bak]
Content Packs
Back up the Content Pack folder $HPBA_HOME/ContentPacks.
General Backup Guidelines
It is recommended that you use the following backup and restore guidelines:
-
Your database administrator should back up critical data and Content Packs on a regular basis.
-
Database backups should consist of a weekly full database backups, and daily differential backups.
-
Backups should be periodically verified by restoring a copy onto a test system.
-
Start scheduled backups before running the daily ETLs.
-
Perform full backups in off-peak times.
