No Backup Files For AGW Servers On a Site

Overview

You may find that there are no backup files for AGW servers on a site, although they exist on another site.

 

Solution

Perform the following steps to check if you can have the issue solved:

  1. Check if there is a cron job defined to automatically execute the backup scripts:
    crontab -l
  2. If the job exists, compare /usr/bin/backup_tpd.sh script and correlated files and scripts on both nodes.
  3. Check if a password-less connection (SSH or SFTP) is not failing because of invalid keys in the known hosts file or root user.

If the above does not solve the issue, create a support ticket and include the following:

  • The script ownership and mod.
  • Is there any backup file in the local directory of the site AGWs? If so, the problem should be in the SFTP part.
  • Compare /usr/bin/mybatch.txt.
  • Test sftp manually:
    sftp -b /usr/bin/mybatch.txt ${sftp_server} >/dev/null 2>&1

Escalate the ticket to the Professional Services team for resolution.
