Bimcloud Basic backup

Anonymous
Not applicable
For bim server, we had a script from Graphisoft, which allowed us to stop the server, backup the bim server and projects to a network folder which then was backuped every night and then restarted the server.
I've been searching the Graphisoft website to find a similar tool for bim cloud basic, but all I found was the backup information for the full version.
Is there/does anyone have a script which allows me to back up the bim cloud basic server?

Hi Noémi,

Thanks for the updated guide.
1 question, the links in the pdf to the scripts don't work.
Can you check the BIMcloud_Basic_22_Backup_Guide.pdf

Kind Regards,

Peter

Hi everybody,

first of all sorry for digging up this Topic from 2018, but there might be a thing to stumble upon for future readers using BIMCloud on Windows.

This Page: https://helpcenter.graphisoft.com/knowledgebase/52663/
has now "BIMcloud" and "BIMcloud Basic" Backup Guide from version 2020.2
The PDF for BIMcloud Basic on Page 5 offers links to zip files with the backup scripts for Mac and PC.
The link to PC leads to: http://dl.graphisoft.com/ftp/techsupport/documentation/BIMcloud_Backup_Guide/v24PcServerAndManagerBk...


The zip file contains 3 bat files
  • v24PcServerAndManagerBkUp.bat
  • v24StopServerService.bat
  • v24StopManagerService.bat
v24PcServerAndManagerBkUp.bat states Line 13
REM Editing the script below this line is not necessary!
but calls v22 Manager and Server to stop

See Line 45-47
REM Stopping Server and Manager
call v22StopServerService.bat
call v22StopManagerService.bat
Should be Line 45-47
REM Stopping Server and Manager
call v24StopServerService.bat
call v24StopManagerService.bat
In case the v22 stop files exist someone could stop v22 and cause inconveniences.

Just as an update - I updated the content of the example scripts - if you attempt to use the links from the BIMcloud Basic backup guide now, you will get the fixed version of the scripts.
