Technical Tip: How to backup the CMDB
Description
This article describes how to backup the CMDB database in FortiSIEM. The CMDB contains discovered information about devices, servers, networks and applications.
The information is stored in a relational database.
It is important to archive the data since the database files may get corrupt.
Solution
The database files are stored in /data/cmdb/data. FortiSIEM automatically backs up this data twice daily and the backup files are stored in /data/archive/cmdb. To do a backup, move these files to another location.
