Component : Spectrum Core / SpectroSERVER
1. Any customizations done in OneClick should have the customized files retained in the <SPECROOT/custom directory.
2. Be sure to copy the original files, retain the original it its OOB location ,and only edit the copied files and keep in the <SPECROOT>/custom directory.
3. If you do not have a backup of <SPECROOT>/custom directory or a backup of the edited OOB files, then you may need to revert the upgrade to get back the edited files, or re-do the customizations being sure to make copies of the original and retain them in <SPECROOT>custom directory. Similarly if you have multiple servers, you may be able to obtain the edited files from another server.

A few other considerations on backing up configurations:
1. If you are using Alarm Notifier, be sure to back up your Alarm Notifier directory (scripts, config files, logs, etc). Default location is <SPECROOT>/Notifier
2. If you have downloaded vender MIBs in the past, you can also make a backup of any of these which may be in <SPECROOT>/MibDatabase/UserContrib directory.
3. If you are using Syslog messaging, you can backup the following:
Cisco Router
|
<$SPECROOT>/SS/CsVendor/Cisco_Router/Rtr.txt
|
Catalyst Switch
|
<$SPECROOT>/SS/CsVendor/Ctron_CAT/Switch.txt
|
Cisco PIX
|
<$SPECROOT>/SS/CsVendor/CiscoPIX/Pix.txt
|
Note: Spectrum 21.2 and up should preserve these files in <SPECROOT>/custom, but is recommended to make a backup
4. If you are using SSL secure sockets layer configured, you can make a backup of server.xml files
<SPECROOT>/tomcat/conf/server.xml
<SPECROOT>/webtomcat/conf/server.xml
