The YSoft SafeQ solution consists of multiple components. Most of the configuration is stored in the database, which should be backed up regularly. However, for a complete backup, all configuration files or folders of a particular component need to be backed up to a safe location (e.g., network storage or backup tape).

Backing Up Configuration Files

To perform a configuration files backup, copy all files or folders in the Configuration files path column to a backup location. When copying, preserve the folder structure to avoid mixing up the configuration files.

Component	Configuration files path
Management Service	\SafeQ6\Management\conf
Management Service	\SafeQ6\Management\ims\application.properties
Management Service	\SafeQ6\Management\tomcat\conf
Management Service	\SafeQ6\Management\validator\conf
Management Service (if an embedded database is used)	\SafeQ6\Management\PGSQL-data\ *.conf
Spooler Controller	\SafeQ6\SPOC\bin\wrapper.conf
Spooler Controller	\SafeQ6\SPOC\conf
Spooler Controller	\SafeQ6\SPOC\distServer\config\distServer.conf
Spooler Controller	\SafeQ6\SPOC\EUI\conf
Spooler Controller	\SafeQ6\SPOC\EUI\ui-conf
Spooler Controller	\SafeQ6\SPOC\terminalserver\*.config
FlexiSpooler	\SafeQ6\FSP\Service\configuration.bin
FlexiSpooler	\SafeQ6\FSP\Service\*.config
Workflow Processing System	\SafeQ6\WPS\*.config
Workflow Processing System: Scanning scripts*	<path to scanning scripts>
YSoft SafeQ Payment System	\SafeQ6\YPS\conf
YSoft SafeQ Payment System (MU25 or older)	\SafeQ6\YPS\ysoft
YSoft SafeQ Payment System (MU26 or later)	\SafeQ6\YPS\ps-conf
YSoft SafeQ Payment System (if an embedded database is used on SPOC)	\SafeQ6\PGSQL-data\*.conf
Mobile Print	\SafeQ6\MPS\Service\conf
Mobile Print	\SafeQ6\MPS\Service\*.config
Mobile Integration Gateway	\SafeQ6\MIG\bin\connector\ConnectorService.exe.config
Mobile Integration Gateway	\SafeQ6\MIG\bin\connector\services\MdnsService.xml

*Scanning scripts can be used with Workflow Processing System. For more information, please check the Workflow Processing System documentation.

Backing Up Binary Files (optional)

Backing up binary files is optional in standard deployment scenarios. Backing up binary files is recommended only in the case of a product customization.

Component	Binary files path
Management Service	\SafeQ6\Management\bin
Management Service	\SafeQ6\Management\dbsync
Management Service	\SafeQ6\Management\ldapreplicator
Management Service	\SafeQ6\Management\libs
Management Service	\SafeQ6\Management\utilities
Spooler Controller	\SafeQ6\SPOC\bin
Spooler Controller	\SafeQ6\SPOC\drivers
Spooler Controller	\SafeQ6\SPOC\extensions
Spooler Controller	\SafeQ6\SPOC\libs
Spooler Controller	\SafeQ6\SPOC\terminalserver
Spooler Controller	\SafeQ6\SPOC\server
Spooler Controller	\SafeQ6\SPOC\utilities
Spooler Controller	\SafeQ6\SPOC\versions

The Backup Script for Collecting Configuration Files

Should you want to automate the YSoft SafeQ configuration files backup, you can use the following PowerShell script:

If you want to change the backup destination folder, modify the attribute backupfolder in the script accordingly.

Note that you should alter the script if you also want to back up Scanning scripts specific for your environment.
