Backup and recovery of HCL Notes database

Introduction

Using Acronis Cyber Protect 15 you can back up and recover HCL Notes(previously known as IBM Notes) database.

Solution

There are two possible ways to back up HCL Notes database:

1. Back up the database files using Files/Folders backup. 

2. To back up an entire machine with HCL Notes, use a pre-data-capture script that dumps the database data to disk so that it appears in consistent state within the volume snapshot.

We recommend contacting the software vendor to learn more about proper quiescing of the database before the backup. Specific configurations may require using different commands/scripts.
