FDM Application directory/Folder structure Backup

Hi
Next week we are planning to migrate the FDM Application from environment to other.
My question is do we need stop the application services to take the Backup of the FDM Application directory?
Ideally i would prefer to stop the services and take the folder backup however not sure if we would have the downtime from the business to do the same.
Please let me know the drawbacks if i take the backup of the application directory without stopping the application services.
Thanks in advance

No you do not need to stop any services to take a copy of the application directory

  • Applications directory excluded from backups

    Hi all,
    My time machine is not backing up correctly. It is exlcuding the Applications directory and I'm unable to do a system restore from it. Does any one have any solutions to this. FYI, I've checked exclusion lists etc. plus there's plenty of space on my backup drive.

    So, I checked
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine.plist
    And it had the /Applications directory under 'ExlcudeByPath' alongside a whole host of other files. Running backup again now after removing this file to see what happens.

  • LV8 Application Builder Folder Structure

    I have a folder structure in my development environment.
    When I build an application, using the application builder, I want to get the same folder structure.
    Example:
    I have folders ..Application\Drivers\DMM\Agilent 34401 and ..Application\Drivers\DMM\Fluke 45.
    There are subfolders containing VI:s in each folder (..Application\Drivers\DMM\Agilent 34401\Subs\sub.vi)
    In the application builder I add ..Application\Drivers to "Dynamic VIs and Support Files".
    I create a new "Destination".
    Now all vi:s from ..Application\Drivers goes to this folder, not to subfolders.
    Is it possible to get a folder structure?

    Hi Staffan,
    When you build an application all of the VI:s will be integrated in an .exe file. The reason for this is that the user of your program not shall be able to do changes in the source code.
    When adding files to the "Dynamic VIs and Support Files" these files are for example help files that you want the program to find no matter where you install your program on the computer. Before adding files to this you need to build the relative path in the program using strip path.vi and build path.vi.
    Dynamic VI:s are not the same as sub VI:s.
    The short answer to your question is no, there is not possible to get a file and folder structure when building an application.

  • Iphoto6 and directory (folder structures)

    Okay - I have been searching the support docs but haven't found a direct answer to this...
    When I moved from PC to Mac and imported my digital images (8000+) to iphoto, it completely wrecked my organization. I had everything organized by directory structure, which iphoto basically disregarded. that was just a month ago and since then iphoto6 has come out.
    If I reimport with iphoto6, will it honor my existing directory structure? I thought it might since there is now a setting under preferences for "Copy files to iphoto folder library when adding to Library".
    Any info anyone can offer would be appreciated!
    Thanks!

    grangerc:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If you want to maintain your originals in their current folder system you can do so by setting iPhoto to not copy your photo files into it's folder system. Instead iPhoto will created an alias link to the original file in your folder system. Each folder in your system will be "imported" into iPhoto as a roll. You can then use albums and folders in the Source window at left to further organize them if you'd like.
    To create a library of this nature have your original files on your boot drive in the location of your choice. Then remove your current iPhoto Library folder to the Trash (don't delete as yet). Now launch iPhoto 6 and when it says it can't find your library choose to create a new one.
    Now with iPhoto open go to your folder system in the Finder and begin dragging them folder by folder, or several at a time, into the open iPhoto window. They become rolls in iPhoto. You may find that the roll date seems arbitrary. That's because iPhoto will use one of the modified dates from the files in that folder for the roll. That can be changed by clicking on the roll icon and going to the Info window at the bottom of the Source window and changing the date of the roll manually. That will position the roll in the lists at that date point.
    I've created a 1 6,600+ library that way form my original photos on a second internal drive. This way I only have to have one full set of original files, thus saving 20G or more. Good luck.

  • If I no longer have the old application Backup installed on my Mac (part of the .Mac subscription), do I still need the folder called Backup, that is in my Library in the Application Support folder?

    If I no longer have the old application Backup installed on my Mac (for performing scheduled backups of data on the computer), do I need the folder called Backup, that is in my Hard Drive, to Library, to the Application Support folder?  (There is no Backup folder in my Home Folder, to Library, to the Application Support folder.) 
    Backup was part of the .Mac subscription I used to have, and I have not used it since I gave up being a .Mac subscriber many years ago.  In fact I recall Apple saying at one point that they no longer supported the Backup Application.  I assume the Backup folder is just remnants from when I used to have that application, however I could be wrong, and don't want to trash the folder unwisely.
    As I looked through the various items in the Backup folder, nothing appears to be modified since 2007, which further confirms that this folder is from long ago when I used to have that application.  I did notice that the main Backup folder itself was the only thing that had a more current modification date on it.  That date coincides with the date that I installed Snow Leopard on my Mac earlier this year.  But I'm assuming that any operating system software installation will place a modification date on all the various folders of one's computer, with the date the new OS was installed.
    Any insight will be appreciated!  Thank you!

    Since it has always been very basic to backup your computer and all it's data, Apple provides no way for you to transfer music from your iPhone back to your computer.  As you know, you can re-download all iTunes purchases, but music that you ripped yourself you'll have to just re-rip again.
    You can try and find 3rd party applications that might help you.  I'm sure you'll pay, however.
    Let this be a very important lesson learned.
    Best.

  • Creating a folder in web application directory?

    Hi
    I have a web application which contains some jsps and servlets and i am running it on Apache Tomcat 4.1. The name of my application is MyApp which contains all the servlets and jsps.
    In order to deploy the application i have placed the MyApp folder in the 'webapps' folder of Tomcat. Now in one of my servlets i.e. 'DirectoryCreator', i am trying to create a folder i.e. 'Directory' in the MyApp folder. The problem is that i dont want to give an absolute path to the File class constructor. The class files of my servlets are in classes folder i.e. MyApp \ Web-INF \ classes.
    I have tried:
    File f = new File("/Directory");
    f.mkdir();
    but this creates the Directory folder in my C drive.
    Please tell me how i can avoid giving the absolute path.
    Thanks.

    if the code to create the directory is a servlet, you can use
    String path=getServletContext().getRealPath("/");
    //getRealPath("/") will return the actual path on your machine of the base directory
    //of the webapp. getRealPath("/SomeDirectory/SomeFile") will return the real
    //path of SomeFile
    File f=new File(path + "/Directory");
    if(!f.exists())
        f.mkdir();if the code is in a .jsp file simple replace getServletContext(). with application.

  • Custom application to upload entire folder structures into KM at once

    Does anyone know of a way (or has an idea of how) to create an application that could be put in an iView to allow the user to select a folder on his/her PC to be uploaded onto KM, subfolders and all?  I have found sample apps that let you upload single files into KM, but none for multiple files or folder structures.
    Thank you

    Hi,
    Some ideas..
    Maybe you should try zipping the whole folder and uploading it. The upload program should unzip the file using the zip APIs from Java, and move the folder into an File Sytem or FSDB repository.
    If you are using the CM repository of type DB then you will have to look at the IResource and ICollection creation APIs to build the folder structure and transfer content.

  • Rebuilding a folder structure lost after restoring from backup

    The external hard drive I was storing four years worth of photos on crashed the other day, and I learned the hard way that they weren't on the backup drive like I thought they were. Luckily I was able to recover at least most of them using FileSalvage. Unfurtunately, my ~15,000 images are now in three folders based on file type (JPG, TIF, DNG/NEF), don't have their original file names, and aren't in any particular order.
    Is there any way short of manually sifting through the files for me to rebuild the year/month/day chronological folder structure I was storing them in?
    I'm running Lightroom 4.0 on a OS X 10.8.4.

    One option is to use Smart Collections to have Lightroom automatically put files into collections by either capture date or edit date.  You can create the collections by year, month, day, a range of dates, etc.  If you want to have four years of photos grouped by month, you'd have to create 48 Smart Collections for the 48 months (if you have photos captured or edited in all 48 months).
    Then if you want to put them into Folders, just drag the Smart Collections to the appropriate Folders.  But note that this will move the files on your hard drive into corresponding folders as well.

  • Complex problem - Time Machine backup missing "Applications" directory

    OK - I have a 2 or 3 year old iMac - Intel 1.83 mh / 4gb memory OS 10.5.7. System has been working fine and time machine seems to have been backing up fine. Today, we had a strange problem with the HD, probably some weird hit - it wouldn't boot, and I tried multiple times. I finally booted from the CD and used the disc utility to try and examine/repair the disk - no luck. I got an error message. I then went back to the CD and restored the entire system from Time Machine. The restore seem to work fine. The system re-booted OK --- EXCEPT --- there were no apps - and I mean zip. Aside from the finder, there was no Terminal app, couldn't find any apps in spotlight, and I couldn't see the app directory anywhere on Time Machine. I believe all of my data was restored OK. It's difficult for me to tell if somehow the apps were all deleted from time machine or they're there and just not visible.
    Anyway, I then restored the OS (10.5) from my CD, and it has restored the basic apps that come with it - mail, terminal, disk utility etc. However, I still can't see the apps on Time Machine.
    This is somewhat disconcerning since I had assumed that I could do a complete system restore with time machine.
    I'm open to any advice you might have.

    Maybe not. Did you do a full restore, by booting from your Leopard Install disc, and selecting Utilities then +*Restore from Backups+* from the menubar? If so, the list of backups you saw was not shown in your local time zone: it's in *U.S. Pacific Time,* (because you only specify your language when booting from the Leopard Install disc, not your local time zone).
    If you selected the last backup shown, then you got the last one, even if the date & time didn't seem right.
    I don't know what to do.
    Shall I start the recovery process from scratch using the same backup (and wait 13 more hours..)? Or maybe try to manually copy the applications directory on the restored mac and see what happens.
    Are you sure it's not there? I know that sounds silly, but be sure you're signed-on as an Admin user, check the top level of your internal HD, and other places. What happens if you click the Apple icon in your Menubar, then +System Preferences?+ It may be some sort of permissions problem -- if the restore utility can't restore something, it will fail, not just skip things.
    If all else fails, your best bet might be to do an Archive and Install, preserving users and settings, per the *Archive & Install* section of the Glenn Carter - Restoring Your Entire System / Time Machine *User Tip* at the top of this forum.
    Then use the normal Time Machine app to restore the other apps.

  • Making Backup using Save As with Assets - changes folder structure

    After saving a concert that contained 7 songs in the set - as a backup to a different external disk, I noticed something. When Mainstage creates the backup, it removes all the files (.wav, .caf, etc.) that were imported into 'Playback' instances from their respective folder structures, and dumps them all into one big folder.
    I like organizing backing tracks for each song into folders. I often go back in to my original Logic tracks and tweak tracks - then want to re-import them. So, the folder structure makes it easier to manage the files.
    I know - the newly created structure on the new disk does work fine... but if I start working on that drive, and want to back it up to the original drive - I've got a situation where I'll have duplicate files created by Mainstage... leaving the original files that were linked to the original concert as orphans... just taking up space.
    I'm going to write to Apple's feedback for Mainstage and ask that the original folder structure be respected (as an option) when saving a concert with its assets to a new location. But, in the meantime, I felt that I needed to vent about this un-Applelike behavior.
    Anybody else annoyed by this?

    No, PS only uses the simplified file dialogs. There is no way to change that.

  • Backup-Restore v Copying itunes folder structure to a backup drive.

    Is there any difference whatsoever in performing a backup to DVD and then a restore, and copying the itunes folder structure to a back up drive and using that to restore? (Assuming you know how)
    I know there are other files involved in itunes that aren't in the main folder, such as cd names database files and other hidden files. Do these get backed up during a proper DVD backup from the file menu and are they necessary really?
    I like the convenience of simply copying the folder structure as a means of backup but don't want to miss out on important files that may be backed up the recommended way with DVD's.
    Is it a big deal if I don't use DVD's and just continue to copy the folders? What am I missing out on by doing this?
    Also - Is it wise to un authorize my computer before I perform a reformat and re install of the entire operating system and iTunes?
    -Frankie

    1. yes you should deauthorise your PC before reinstalling Windows, then reauthorise after reinstalling itunes.
    2. Assuming you have the default arrangement for iTunes i.e. Music\iTunes\iTunes Music with all your music files in iTunes Music.
    You can backup iTunes by copying the iTunes folder in Music with all its subfolders to an external drive.
    Then after you have reinstalled Windows and iTunes, you can replace the empty iTunes folder created at installation with the one from backup.

  • Exporting project- folder structure to other Non-Aperture  applications

    Hello,
    I'm about to lay the foundation for a new Aperture installation. As far as organizational structure goes, this what I have in mind:
    1 Project / year
    1 Album / event
    Example:
    Project 1993
    Derek's Birthday album
    Linda's wedding album
    Project 1994
    Robert Birthday album
    Bob wedding album
    At some point, I will want to export the whole structure or some projects to family and friends who would like to view these images on their PC (not everyone is converted to MAC, yet).
    I understand the Export>Projects command generates a file that can only be understood by Aperture, so useless for sharing with non-aperture users. What I'd like to do is:
    1) Translate the project-album structure to a folder-subfolder structure in order to share images with other PC users.
    2) At the same time export images versions as opposed to masters.
    3) At the same time export all added Metadata.
    I have the feeling Aperture is not ready to do all of the above with one command only. How can I maintain the project structure in order to share with other PC users? I guess only a script will be able to do this...
    Thanks for your feedback.

    1) Translate the project-album structure to a folder-subfolder structure in order to share images with other PC users.
    Albums simply don't translate sensibly into Finder folders, in the same way that iTunes playlists don't. Any one Version can exist in any number of Albums, so you'd either end up having to choose one place for the exported file to be and remove it from all the other folders representing Albums, or end up with multiple duplicate copies of the same file.
    Projects, on the other hand, can be mapped directly to Finder folders. So you might be better off using Blue Folders and Projects rather than Projects and Albums.
    2) At the same time export images versions as opposed to masters.
    3) At the same time export all added Metadata.
    Exported Versions will automatically include IPTC & EXIF metadata, assuming you chose an export preset with metadata included.
    I have the feeling Aperture is not ready to do all of the above with one command only.
    There are some AppleScripts that will replicate the structure within Aperture when exporting (or Aperture Assistant* to do it without any scripting knowledge), but as I mentioned already, you will end up with multiple duplicate files.
    Also, you would have to do this again every time that you alter a Version, import files or move Versions around.
    Basically, the virtual nature of both images and organisation in Aperture mean that it won't really work in the way that you wish, and LightRoom wouldn't be much better even though it has closer ties to the folder structure.
    Why not simply export a Projects-worth of images in this way rather than your whole Library?
