In this recipe, we look into backing up and restoring Orchestrator. To back up and restore single packages or workflows, please see the Importing and exporting Orchestrator elements and Working with packages recipes in Chapter 4, Programming Skills.
There are several things that should be backed up; we will have a look at all of them.
This is a one off job. You only need to do it when you change the Orchestrator configuration:
Open the Orchestrator Control Center.
Click on Export/Import Configuration and then on Export Configuration.
Select all the checkboxes.
Depending on your security needs, assign a Password to the export.
Click on Export.
Place the file in a secure location where you can easily retrieve it in the case of a restore.
