Backup

Introduction

It is recommended to make regular backups of important files and folder of UiPath Process Mining to make sure you can easily recover in case of a system failure. The easiest way is to back up the complete installation of UiPath Process Mining. If the entire installation contains too much data, it is sufficient to only back up the needed files.

Data

UiPath Process Mining keeps a copy of the data that can be used to roll-back in case of a data problem.

Production servers

All data is usually also available in data source systems. Therefore, it might not be needed to back up the data.

Note: Regular backups of the source systems containing the data are also important, but this is not part of the scope of this lesson.

Development servers

When developers are using static data files that cannot easily be reproduced, this data files might need to be backed up.

Workspaces can contain unfinished and uncommitted work. Normally this should be minimal. This should be checked with the developers before making a backup.
