Steps to make a complete backup of your DCS or CSP database 

Environment

Component : Database

Resolution

To make a complete backup of your SCSP server perform the following steps:

1.  Copy and backup the following files from your SCSP server:

<install directory>\symantec\critical system protection\server\agent-cert.ssl
<install directory>\symantec\critical system protection\server\server-cert.ssl
<install directory>\symantec\critical system protection\server\ui-cert.ssl
<install directory>symantec\critical system protection\server\tomcat\conf\server.xml

    Copy and backup the below for DCS:SA server: 

<install directory>\Symantec\Data Center Security Server\Server\agent-cert.ssl

<install directory>\Symantec\Data Center Security Server\Server\sss.ssl

<install directory>\Symantec\Data Center Security Server\Server\umcserver.ssl

<install directory>\Symantec\Data Center Security Server\Server\server-cert.ssl

<install directory>\Symantec\Data Center Security Server\Server\rootkey.ssl

<install directory>\Symantec\Data Center Security Server\Server\tomcat\conf\server.xml

<install directory>\Symantec\Data Center Security Server\Server\tomcat\conf\quartz.properties

<install directory>\Symantec\Data Center Security Server\Server\umc\umc.properties

<install directory>\Symantec\Data Center Security Server\Server\umc\ssl\umcCA\certs (backup the entire certs folder)

<install directory>\Symantec\Data Center Security Server\Server\jre\lib\security\cacerts

2.  Login to Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio

3.  Right click on SCSPDB and choose Tasks\Back Up. NOTE: It is recommended to use the "full" backup option to include backup of the master database. (**For DCS, also backup the dcs_umc database**)

4.  After making a full database backup, also backup the Security Login Accounts. (These users are NOT backed up when you backup the database. The users must be copied using a MS SQL script http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918992)

5.  From Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio, click on New Query.  Copy the following into the query window:

USE master
GO
IF OBJECT_ID ('sp_hexadecimal') IS NOT NULL
  DROP PROCEDURE sp_hexadecimal
GO
CREATE PROCEDURE sp_hexadecimal
    @binvalue varbinary(256),
    @hexvalue varchar (514) OUTPUT

DECLARE @charvalue varchar (514)
DECLARE @i int
DECLARE @length int
DECLARE @hexstring char(16)
SELECT @charvalue = '0x'
SELECT @i = 1
SELECT @length = DATALENGTH (@binvalue)
SELECT @hexstring = '0123456789ABCDEF'
WHILE (@i <= @length)
BEGIN
  DECLARE @tempint int
  DECLARE @firstint int

  SELECT @tempint = CONVERT(int, SUBSTRING(@binvalue,@i,1))
  SELECT @firstint = FLOOR(@tempint/16)
  SELECT @secondint = @tempint - (@firstint*16)
  SELECT @charvalue = @charvalue +
    SUBSTRING(@hexstring, @firstint+1, 1) +
    SUBSTRING(@hexstring, @secondint+1, 1)
  SELECT @i = @i + 1
END

SELECT @hexvalue = @charvalue

IF (@@fetch_status = -1)
BEGIN
  PRINT 'No login(s) found.'
  CLOSE login_curs
  DEALLOCATE login_curs
  RETURN -1
END
SET @tmpstr = '/* sp_help_revlogin script '
PRINT @tmpstr
SET @tmpstr = '** Generated ' + CONVERT (varchar, GETDATE()) + ' on ' + @@SERVERNAME + ' */'

        -- obtain password policy state
        SELECT @is_policy_checked = CASE is_policy_checked WHEN 1 THEN 'ON' WHEN 0 THEN 'OFF' ELSE NULL END FROM sys.sql_logins WHERE name = @name

        IF ( @is_policy_checked IS NOT NULL )
        BEGIN

    END

  END

  FETCH NEXT FROM login_curs INTO @SID_varbinary, @name, @type, @is_disabled, @defaultdb, @hasaccess, @denylogin
   END
CLOSE login_curs
DEALLOCATE login_curs
RETURN 0
GO

This will create two stored procedures in the master database

The procedures are names sp_hexadecimal and sp_help_revlogin

Next you will need to open another New Query window and run the following query:

EXEC sp_help_revlogin

This will output the logins with SID

6.  Copy the output to Notepad and save it as SCSPusers.txt

NOTE: This is everything you need to be able to completely restore your database should it become corrupted
