Emphasis on backing up is given because it ensures proper upgradation and resuming your normal work without losing any important files or setting. The guidance provided in this &#8220;QlikView Backup and Restoring&#8221; tutorial is applicable to standalone machines or multi-server deployments.<\/p>\n<p>The main files to back up are in the QlikTech folder in the program data folder and QlikView folder in the program files. You can take a backup of these directories either manually or by creating a QlikView backup script so that the system takes the backup on the desired location when the script executes.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/qlikview-charts\/\">Do you know How to Create\u00a0QlikView Charts (Funnel, Grid, Line, Mekko, Scatter)?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 align=\"justify\">QlikView Server Data Directories<\/h3>\n<p>The server data directories are all the files and folders needed for QlikView backup.

QlikView Publisher Repository (QVPR) Database<\/h4>\n<p>The QlikView Publisher Repository is another important component in QlikView\u2019s architecture. The QVPR also stores important configuration and backup files for publisher repository. A QlikView backup of QVPR files is created daily and the backup is stored in .zip file format at the location:<\/p>\n<p><strong>C:\\ProgramData\\QlikTech\\ManagementService\\QVPR\\Backups.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The QlikView backup folder usually contains .xml and .bak files. QVPR backup is necessary so that the publisher configuration is migrated to the new environment easily. The daily backup frequency of QVPR can change at the storage location of backup files.<\/p>\n<h4 align=\"justify\">iv. QlikView Web server<\/h4>\n<p align=\"justify\">Another component crucial in the functioning of QlikView is a web server. Taking a backup of webserver files is also a must because it contains web configuration files, websites, certificates etc. The QlikView backup procedure is the same either you use QlikView Server or Microsoft IIS web server.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Although in case of any customization, you must refer to the authorized customization documentation to know the best procedure of creating a backup of customized server configuration files.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/qlikview-web-server-qvws\/\">Follow this link to know about QlikView Web Server (QVWS)?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h4 align=\"justify\">v. Log Files<\/h4>\n<p>A log file maintains the data records for either events, transactions or processes going on between different QlikView components. This recorded data is very useful in troubleshooting problems generated in QlikView\u2019s functioning. However, with everything being stored in a log file, file size might be an issue during backing up the log file. The solution to it can be deleting unimportant information but it is not recommended to do so.<\/p>\n<h4 align=\"justify\">vi. Licenses<\/h4>\n<p align=\"justify\">If you are running a licensed version of QlikView, then only do you get all the features and functionalities of QlikView and even need to backup all these files during upgradation. Most of the files that are necessary to back up are not present on the unlicensed\/personal edition version. However, you don\u2019t need to take a backup of licensing files manually.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">All the files related to licensing are saved at a secure location automatically while you remove the old QlikView server and are also upgraded and stored at specific locations when you install a new version of QlikView Server. A QlikView Server license (LEF) is stored at C:\\ProgramData\\QlikTech and the QlikView Publisher license is added at the location C:\\ProgramData\\QlikTech\\ManagementService\\PublisherLEF.<\/p>\n<h4 align=\"justify\">vii. Certificates<\/h4>\n<p>We have talked about digital certificates in the sections earlier. They are one of the two methods of sever authentication. These certificates are the key to authenticate and ensure proper functioning of the various services that QlikView server offers. Backing up these official certificates is very crucial especially in the versions 12.00 and later. Digital Certificates are backed up from Microsoft Management Console (MMC).<\/p>\n<p>There are three kinds of certificates generated, shown in the table below.<\/p>\n<dl>\n<dd>\n<table width=\"559\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"7\">\n<colgroup>\n<col width=\"121\" \/>\n<col width=\"138\" \/>\n<col width=\"122\" \/>\n<col width=\"121\" \/> <\/colgroup>\n<tbody>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td width=\"121\" height=\"3\">\n<p align=\"center\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Type of certificate<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td width=\"138\">\n<p align=\"center\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Location<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td width=\"122\">\n<p align=\"center\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Issued By<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td width=\"121\">\n<p align=\"center\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Issued To<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td style=\"background: #f2f2f2\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\" width=\"121\" height=\"33\">\n<p align=\"center\"><b><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Server<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"background: #f2f2f2\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\" width=\"138\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Local Computer\/Personal<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"background: #f2f2f2\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\" width=\"122\">\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><span lang=\"en-US\">QlikViewCA<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"background: #f2f2f2\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\" width=\"121\">\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><span lang=\"en-US\">&lt;machine-name&gt;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td width=\"121\" height=\"33\">\n<p align=\"center\"><b><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Client<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td width=\"138\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Local Computer\/Personal<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/td>\n<td width=\"122\">\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><span lang=\"en-US\">QlikViewCA<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td width=\"121\">\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><span lang=\"en-US\">QVProxy<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td style=\"background: #f2f2f2\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\" width=\"121\" height=\"57\">\n<p align=\"center\"><b><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Root<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"background: #f2f2f2\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\" width=\"138\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Local Computer\/ Trusted Root Certification Authorities<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"background: #f2f2f2\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\" width=\"122\">\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><span lang=\"en-US\">QlikViewCA<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"background: #f2f2f2\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\" width=\"121\">\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><span lang=\"en-US\">QlikViewCA<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<p align=\"justify\">In the latest versions of QlikView, it is highly recommended to keep a backup of the certificates and never delete them from the system because crucial information can be lost, and the software\u2019s functioning can impair. This ensures the authentic functioning of all the QlikView services after restoring the certificates in the newly installed environment.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">However, in the version earlier than 12.00, the certificates from old version can\u2019t use by migrating and restoring them to a new version. New certificates generate for a new version.<\/p>\n<h4 align=\"justify\">viii. Custom Files<\/h4>\n<p align=\"justify\">Many enterprises add some customizations to a few services like security, authentication etc. These customizations can create by the enterprise or through a third-party consultancy. In any case, it is suggested to keep a backup of all the customization configuration and settings files.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Refer to the third-party documentation or consult with them directly if you have any doubts regarding the process of creating a QlikView backup. But make sure you have a back up of custom files.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/qlikview-publisher-repository-qvpr\/\">Follow this link to know about QlikView Publisher Repository (QVPR)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h4 align=\"justify\">ix. Configuration Files<\/h4>\n<p>We have seen the importance of configuration files in all the data directories and services. The configuration files store with the extension .config. Every QlikView server service runs efficiently because it configures correctly to the system and according to the system deployment. You can backup the configuration files of each service from the sub-folders of the relevant data directories.<\/p>\n<p>However, if you have applied any customization on the services, then we recommend you to not backup and restore the configuration files like usual. Because if you create the QlikView backup of the customized configuration files and then restore it after the upgradation, your system will lose all the new features and settings that the new version offers.<\/p>\n<p>To avoid this, take a note of the customization details somewhere before starting the upgrade. Let the software upgrade as usual with creating new configuration files for all services. Then manually edit the file properties of particular services and enter the customization details on the new files. By doing so, you will not miss the upgraded functionalities from the customized files.<\/p>\n<h4>x. Other Important FIles<\/h4>\n<p>There are several other important files require to back up like Settings Files, Documents, Bookmarks, User Objects.<\/p>\n<h3 align=\"justify\">QlikView Restore<\/h3>\n<p>The QlikView backup certificates and files can restore\u00a0to the device from the Microsoft Management Control (MMC). The MMC must use on the same machine where your QlikView Management Service is running.<\/p>\n<p>Given below is the process of restoring certificates form MMC.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Open the <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Microsoft Management Console<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Click on <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>File<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Click on <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Add\/Remove Snap-in<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Select <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Certificates<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Click <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Add<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Select <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Computer Account<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Click <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Next<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Select <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Local Computer<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Click <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Finish<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Then click <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>OK<\/b><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"> on the main window<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Expand the <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Certificates<\/b><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"> Node<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Select <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\">the<b> Trusted Root Certification Authorities\/Personal<\/b><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"> and select the <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Certificates<\/b><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"> folder<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Click on <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>All Tasks<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Click <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Import<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Browse your certificate backup files from the <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Certificate Import Wizard<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Select Root Certificate and click <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Open<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Click <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Next<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li>Enter the password<\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Select <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Mark this key as exportable<\/b><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"> and <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Include all extended properties<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Click <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Next<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"en-US\">Click on <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, serif\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Finish<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p align=\"justify\">This procedure will import all the certificates into the MMC and show them listed on the main pane, hence restoring them.
