Sonatype CLM Server - Installation And Configuration

We highly recommend that you establish a data recovery plan in accordance with your company’s policies.

The Sonatype CLM Server keeps all its configuration and data, besides the startup configuration, in the sonatypeWork folder as configured in config.yml. By default, this folder will be the sonatype-work/clm-server folder in your installation directory.

There is a tight coupling between report data stored in the file system and the data stored in the H2 database. Any backup strategy for sonatypeWork while the CLM Server is still available to users runs the risk that the database will still be open, leading to a corrupt backup. Therefore, the CLM Server should be shut down before performing the backup.
