Appendix A ACS Command Reference
EXEC Commands
• Certificate store—Located at /opt/CSCOacs/conf.
• Viewer database—If the ACS node you are backing up has Viewer enabled.
You can use the show backup history command to display the backup operations and determine whether
they succeeded.
If the backup fails, you may be able to use the show logging command (or the show acs-logs command
if you are backing up ACS logs) to view troubleshooting information. Failures in the ACS aspect of the
backup are clearly described in messages that are displayed on the terminal.
Examples acs/admin# backup mybackup repository myrepository
