Configuration data are created during installation and optionally are modified by users later on. This suggests that backups of configuration data are required only in case of changes by users.
Logging Data
Log files of the Controller (not: of workflows or jobs) are available from the Controller's JS7_CONTROLLER_DATA/logs
directory.
Except for problem analysis the log files are not too relevant, However, compliance reasons might suggest to backup log files.
Transaction Data
Transaction data of the Controller instances are available from the Controller's JS7_CONTROLLER_DATA/state
directory directory that hold holds journal information about JS7 - Deployment and JS7 - Order State Transitions. This applies to Standalone Controller instances and to Controller Cluster instances.
- It is pointless to backup transaction data as they can change every millisecond.
- Restoring from a backup that is for example 30 minutes back is of no use as in between jobs will have been executed and orders will have proceeded which includes severe data loss and results in an inconsistent journal.
- Use of a cluster file system for the Active Standalone Controller Instance instance's journal is an option. However, this includes performance penalties and requires manual intervention to restart a failed Standalone Controller instance from a clean copy of its journal.
The JS7 - Controller Cluster guarantees consistency of transaction data as they are synchronized between Active and Standby Controller instances on different machines. Should the Active Controller Instance instance's journal be lost, for example due to disk failure, then the Standby Controller instance will pick up operation form a consistent copy of the journal. If the failed Controller instance is started later on then it will be assigned the standby role and will synchronize its journal from the active instance Active Controller Instance.
Agent
Configuration Data
All configuration data are available from files in the ControllerAgent's JS7_AGENT_DATA/config
directory, for example

- Use of a cluster file system for the Active Directory Standalone Agent Instance instance's journal is an option. However, this includes performance penalties and requires manual intervention to restart a failed Director Standalone Agent from a clean copy of its journal.
The JS7 - Agent Cluster guarantees consistency of transaction data as they are synchronized between Active and Standby Director Agent instances on different machines. Should the Active Director Agent Instance's s journal be lost, for example due to disk failure, then the Standby Agentv Director Agent will pick up operation form a consistent copy of the journal. If the failed Controller Director Agent instance is started later on then it will be assigned the standby role and will synchronize its journal from the active instance Active Director Agent.
