Dear friends,
Platform is ACS 1120 Ver 5.1. I tried using the acs backup and just the backup command and both are currently giving me problems.
1. When i backup ACS using the "acs backup" command, and then remove a few commands from acs configuration, i should be able to get back those commands into the configuration when i run a restore. Right? However, i dont see that. Following are the screenshots:
Backup of data:
ACS/admin# acs backup gcc-backup repository gcc-repository
ACS backup file 'gcc-backup-100925-1336.tar.gpg' successfully copied to repository 'gcc-repository'
Backup history:
ACS/admin# show backup history
Sat Sep 25 13:36:34 AST 2010: backup gcc-backup-100925-1336.tar.gpg to repository gcc-repository: success
Repository contents:
ACS/admin# show repository gcc-repository
gcc-backup-100925-1336.tar.gpg
I tried removing the following commands:
ACS/admin(config)# no snmp-server contact GCC-IT
ACS/admin(config)# no snmp-server location GCC-DC
Sat Sep 25 14:56:31 AST 2010: restore gcc-backup-100925-1334.tar.gpg from repository gcc-repository: success
ACS/admin# restore gcc-backup-100925-1336.tar.gpg repository gcc-repository application acs
Restore requires a restart of application services. Continue? (yes/no) [yes] ? yes

Sat Sep 25 15:46:30 AST 2010: restore gcc-backup-100925-1336.tar.gpg from repository gcc-repository: success
However, the two snmp commands are not reverted back.
2. Also, if i just run the backup command, i get some error though there is a 54 MB file copied successfully to the FTP server:
The following are the captures:
ACS/admin# backup bkp repository gcc-repository
% Creating backup with timestamped filename: bkp-100925-1517.tar.gpg
tar: backup/acs/view/avreports/repository/public/public: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
show backup history
Sat Sep 25 15:17:49 AST 2010: backup bkp-100925-1517.tar.gpg to repository gcc-repository: success
Please advise what the above error means?
Thanks a lot

Dear friends,
I made a change in the GUI by removing a user and then restoring from backup and it worked fine.
So i guess that the ACS config that they are referring to is the GUI config?
I got the answer for point 1. However, can anyone just give me some clue for the issue i am facing in point 2?
Thanks a lot

Gautam,
One of my customer had a same issue and we got the fix.
Could you also try taking a backup on your ACS appliance with the following command on the
ACS cli: backuprepository
And then restore the same backup onto the same ACS with the following command from the
cli: restorerepository
thanks,

Dear Vinay,
I tried the same thing. Please find below the captures:
ACS/admin# backup bkp repository gcc-repository
% Creating backup with timestamped filename: bkp-100925-1517.tar.gpg
tar: backup/acs/view/avreports/repository/public/public: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
show backup history
Sat Sep 25 15:17:49 AST 2010: backup bkp-100925-1517.tar.gpg to repository gcc-repository: success
Thanks a lot

Hi,
observed the same error message yesterday on 5.2 a fresh reimaged ACS Appliance.
Did a Backup on 5.1, Installed 5.2, restored the 5.1 Backup to the appliance
After that tried another backup on the CLI:
svacs1/admin# backup Test123 repository RepoBackup
% Creating backup with timestamped filename: Test123-101020-1322.tar.gpg
tar: backup/acs/view/avreports/repository/public/public: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
svacs1/admin#
From my point of view, the error message looks exactly like
the output of the native unix tar-command.
The directory names seem to indicate a repository for reports should be archived in the tar file,
but the specified files/directory does not exist in the appliances' file system.
Anyone already opened a SR with the CiscoTAC ?
Got useful Answers or even a BugID ?

Hi all,
you can have a look at the following bug: CSCtj35006
This is just a cosmetic issue and you can check on the ADE.log file for the actual result of the backup task.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Federico
