CiscoSecure ACS 3.2 Backup Scheduling

[tim_roper]

I have scheduled ACS 3.2 to backup every Monday morning at 12:30am; however, it never works. I've selected 1 green box in the admin pages (System Configuration --> ACS Backup --> ACS Backup Scheduling). Shouldn't this be backing up every week? Whether I make system changes or not, it still doesn't backup reliably. Thanks, Tim

Guess there is some problems of backup in ACS 3.1. But not sure why its in 3.2 also. Try these steps.

The secondary when set up for outbound replication to the primary, you might get a denied error message.

To fix it,

- Set up secondary's scheduling to "Manually."

- Remove the primary from the replication partner list on the backup. It should only be present under AAA servers.

When you try to replicate, it might indicate that it is not required, then

- Add a dummy user (User Setup).

- Add a dummy AAA client (Network Config).

- Initiate Replication.

- Remove dummy user and AAA client.

- Initiate Replication again.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the input; however, my problem is with the backup of the database configuration...not the replication. Thanks again, Tim
