It is recommended to archive artifacts and
attachments to facilitate migration and data recovery processes.
Locate
the folders that reside in the following location (where Cortex
XSOAR is installed),
/var/lib/demisto/artifacts/
and
/var/lib/demisto/attachments/
.
Although
the folders reside in
/var/lib/demisto/artifacts/
and
/var/lib/demisto/attachments/
,
Do Not
save
the backup folders under
/var/lib/demisto/
.
Follow
these steps to create artifact and attachment archive folders.
Stop the Cortex XSOAR service using the following command.
$ sudo service demisto stop
Create directories to hold the archived artifacts and
attachments. For example:
mkdir -p /var/lib/demisto-archive/artifacts
mkdir -p /var/lib/demisto-archive/attachments
Navigate to the
/var/lib/demisto-archive/
folder.
cd /var/lib/demisto-archive/
Find the artifacts and attachments you want to save and compress
in the archive directories. For example, the following commands archive
artifacts and attachments that are older than 250 days.
For artifacts:
find /var/lib/demisto/artifacts -type f -mtime +250 | xargs -I% sh -c 'tar -rvf artifacts/artifactsArchive.tar.gz % && rm %'
For
attachments:
find /var/lib/demisto/attachments -type f -mtime +250 | xargs -I% sh -c 'tar -rvf attachments/attachmentsArchive.tar.gz % && rm %'
