> You might want to back up your web server configuration also For IIS6, here is the batch file we use to perform a scheduled backup of the metabase as well as an XML export. Hopefully it can benefit anyone else out there who isn't backing up their metabase regularly. (Note: gf-bigmama is a file server which holds our initial backups before they get shipped off-site, so replace that with a path you're comfortable with)
@echo off md \\gf-bigmama\metabases\%computername% cd %SystemRoot%\system32 cscript.exe iisback.vbs /backup /b SchedBackup /v 0 /overwrite del \\gf-bigmama\metabases\%computername%\%computername%.xml cscript iiscnfg.vbs /export /f \\gf-bigmama\metabases\%computername%\%computername%.xml /sp /lm /inherited /children MOVE %SystemRoot%\system32\inetsrv\MetaBack\SchedBackup.* \\gf-bigmama\metabases\%computername% My understanding for IIS7 is that any configuration changes made to a site are written to web.config in the site's root folder, so backing up that file along with the rest of the site brings its settings along with it. I'm not familiar with where IIS7 stores its actual site listing though, I'm fairly certain they did away with the metabase itself though. I suspect there's some XML file hanging out somewhere that would just need to be copied. -Justin ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:338119 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
