Performing Database Maintenance in Intercompany Landscape

Performing Database Maintenance in Intercompany Landscape

This section provides information about maintaining the intercompany integration solution landscape database created by the intercompany integration solution.

Note
The landscape database is created on the instance of the SAP Business One server running the Integration Solutions Installer.

Landscape Database Backup
To reduce the risk of data loss, ensure that you develop a strategy to back up the landscape database.

 Recommendation
We recommend fully backing up the landscape database as often as you backup your company databases.

You must develop a backup policy. 

For SAP HANA databases, see the section Backup Policy in SAP Business One Administrator's Guide, version for SAP HANA.
For MS SQL databases, see the section Maintaining Databases in the  SAP Business One Administrator’s Guide

Restoring the Landscape Database
If a failure damages the system, in most cases, restoring the database will restore the integrity of the data. 
You may be required to change hardware or reinstall the operating system before restoring your database.
Once the system is restored, you must restore your last full backup of the landscape database.

Recommendation
Ensure that a person familiar with the restore procedures is available during the database restoration.

Note

After the landscape database is restored, you may be required to reinstall the intercompany integration solution.
After the database has been restored, you must execute all steps for setting up the intercompany integration solution.

Recommendation
It is suggested to keep the transaction log file size of the Landscape database to a minimum.
