Saving configurations with the command line

Note: This topic is for Management Station users. If not using Management Station you can either back up the host, create a snapshot, or roll it back to a previous state.

Linux: install_path/Management_Station/mstation/mserver/webapps/mserver/scripts/fetch-config.sh arguments

Windows: install_path\Management_Station\mstation\mserver\webapps\mserver\scripts\fetch-config.bat arguments

Arguments Descriptions
-host (name)

Use this argument to save the configuration of a host. If the host resides in a cluster, you must also specify the -cluster argument.

The value is the host name (as displayed in Management Station).

-cluster (path)

Use this argument to save the configuration of a cluster or a host inside a cluster.

The value is the cluster name including the path (if the cluster resides in another cluster). For example "Cluster1/Cluster2".

Use forward slash (/) in any path value (regardless of operating system).

-network

Use this argument to save the configuration of the entire Nuance network. (This is a flag with no value.)

When you specify this argument, you cannot specify -host or -cluster.

-f (filename)

Required. Name of the output file containing the saved configuration.

-path (outputfilepath)

Optional. Relative (to the current directory) or absolute filepath for the output file. Ignored if the filepath does not exist, or if there are insufficient permissions to save the file. Use forward slash (/) in the path value (regardless of operating system).

Linux default: $NUANCE_DATA_DIR/system/savedRoles/

Windows default: %NUANCE_DATA_DIR%\system\savedRoles\

-servername (mstation)

Required. Name or IP address of the Management Station host.

-port MS_port

Optional. Port assigned to Management Station. Default is 8080 (http) or 8444 (https).

-username (name)

Optional. Management Station login user name. Default is Administrator.

The script prompts for the account password. Your typing is not echoed on the screen.

-https

Optional. Flag to indicate that Management Station is configured for HTTPS. The default is HTTP.

If a value contains a space, surround it with quotes. For example: -cluster “Cluster 2” or -path "C:\Install\Saved Roles"

When you store a configuration as a backup, you can restore or re-use it on hosts running the same Speech Suite version. As a best practice, save new backups after every upgrade. (If you upgrade Speech Suite, previously saved role files might require manual updates. For example, if the startup command, properties, or default values in the role file were changed during the upgrade.) To restore the saved configuration, see Re-using saved configurations.
