Data Archive backup scripts are located in the PI\adm directory.

  • pibackup.bat

    Use this script to launch a backup or to install a backup as a scheduled task.

  • pibackuptask.bat

    This script calls pibackup.bat and redirects the standard output to a log file.

  • pisitebackup.bat

    This custom backup script does not exist by default.

  • pintbackup.bat

    This custom backup script does not exist by default and typically should not be implemented unless you have upgraded Data Archive.

  • pibackup_3.4.370.bat

    Data Archive installation creates this script only when upgrading from 3.4.370 to 3.4.375 or greater.

With the exception of installing a backup task with pibackup.bat, you do not need to run any of these backup scripts directly.

Note: If the PI AF server is installed on the same computer as the Data Archive server, then an additional script, called afbackup.bat, is installed in the pipc directory (pipc\AF\sql).
