Backing up the server database

The Helix ALM License Server database should be backed up regularly.

SQLite databases

By default, the server database is stored in the following locations on the computer that hosts the license server:

  • Windows—C:\Program Files\Perforce\License Server\LicenseServDb
  • Linux—/var/lib/splicsvr/LicenseServDb

To back up the server database:

1. Stop the license server.

2. Copy the LicenseServDb directory to a backup directory.

3. Restart the license server.

Other RDBMS databases

If the server database is stored in an RDBMS database, ask your DBA for help with backups.
