When requested by Jiwa Support for a backup of a database these are the steps to follow
...
Create a BACPAC file for cloud / Azure hosted databases or very large databases (see instructions here Manual Backups#ManuallyCreatingaBACPACBackupBACPAC Backup(.bacpac))
Otherwise, create a manual .bak backup (see instructions here Manual Backups#ManuallyCreatingaBackupBackup(.bak))
Upload the backup
- Install a FTP Client onto your computer if you haven't done yet.
NOTE: We recommend FileZilla which is free available from the web on:
https://filezilla-project.org/download.php - Load up the FTP client and enter the following credentials into the login section:
Server: ftp://ftp.jiwa.com.au
Username: uploads
Password: uploadsInfo title Write-Only permission The credentials used to upload files have write-only permission. Your data is secure and cannot be viewed, downloaded or deleted by anyone other than Jiwa staff.
- Browse to the backup file you have created and then upload it
- Wait until the backup is fully uploaded
- Update your Jiwa Helpdesk case to inform us that the uploaded file is available for us to download. We'll then remove it from the FTP site
Troubleshooting

- Right-click on your .bak file and select Add to archive
2. In the General tab of winrar, type in 300 in the 'Split to volumes, size' box
3. Select MB from the dropdown, then click OK
