After you backed up the administration database, you need to back up the SVN
repository where all projects items and metadata are stored.
Apache Subversion is deprecated from 7.3.1 R2021-08 release onwards
If you are using Git, you need to duplicate the old repository and connect this to a new
repository in Git. For more information, see Github's documentation: https://help.github.com/articles/duplicating-a-repository/.
Warning: If you are using Git or SVN, after connecting your new Talend Studio to repositories from your old
Talend environment, you will
not be able to access these repositories from the old Talend Studio versions.
Procedure
-
Execute locally the following command on the machine hosting the SVN repository,
using the
svnadmin dump
command:
$> svnadmin dump /talend/svn/repotis > svn_repotis.dump
where /talend/svn/repotis
is the path on the hard
drive where the repository is stored and >
is the copy command
into a dump file.
-
If you need to restore your SVN repository, shut down the subversion
daemon and delete the /talend/svn/repotis repository.
-
Create again the repository from the backup file, using this command:
$> mkdir /talend/svn
$> svnadmin create /talend/svn/repotis
$> svnadmin load /talend/svn/repotis < svn_repotis.dump
where
/talend/svn/repotis and
svn_repotis.dump are the respective path and name used to
store the dump file you created.
Warning: Beware that only the
repository is restored, not the users.
