Yesterday I told you I was going to do a export of my test farm with “stsadm -o export”. Here is how I did it.
First of all I have to say that the farm is installed with kerberos authentication. Don’t know if it is important but that is one of the “special” things about the farm.
To do the export I needed an account with dbaccess rights. For the portal and the Shared Service Provider (I have backed up both) those are the application pool accounts and I put those in the Local Administration group on the server where I did the export.
To backup the portal I started a command prompt (run as portal application pool account) and used the following command:
stsadm -o export -url http:// -filename c:\export.cab -versions 1 -cabsize 1024
Below you see the output of this command.
For backing up the SSP I ran a command prompt as ssp application pool account. Output below.
Today
