How to Back-Up Canary Software (version 25)
Knowledge Base / Version 25 / System Admin Duties / General
Although Canary does not include a back-up feature within its software, the following 3 directories can be backed up using a 3rd party tool:
- C:\Program Files\Canary - This is where Canary's executables reside.
- C:\Historian Data - This is where the actual data is stored for each DataSet. Data is stored in proprietary HDB3 files. (Only created when the Historian service is installed.)
- C:\ProgramData\Canary - This where Canary stores its program data used for its various services including Collectors, Calcs & Events, and Axiom user files.
The directories listed above are the default locations and may be different for your system.
