Ignoring Database Tables During Backups

To specify the exclusion of certain tables from the normal backup process, include the following line in the agiliance.properties file:

com.agiliance.admin.backup.BackupManager.IgnoredTableNames=tableList

where <tableList> is a comma-separated list of table names. By default, only the agl_auditlog  table is specified in the RiskVision.default.system.properties file.

A MySQL dump file will be created for each ignored table when the database back up job runs for the first time. On subsequent back ups, new dump files will only be created for new tables specified in tableList, if you made changes to the list. These dump files must be imported into the database if the database is restored using a back up that does not contain these tables and their indexes.
