Back up your PingAccess by copying a JSON file to another system.

Note:

Large PingAccess configurations can take upwards of 30 minutes to export. During an export, you cannot modify the PingAccess configuration.

  1. Click Settings and then go to System > Configuration Export/Import.
  2. Click Export Configuration.

    The downloaded file name is pa-data-<timestamp>.json.

    Note:

    The <timestamp> value is formatted MM-DD-YYYY.hh.mm.ss. For example, a date and time of January 31, 2020 1:35 PM would be encoded as 01-31-2020.13.35.00 in the file name.

  3. Copy the generated file to another system.
  4. If you plan to restore PingAccess in a new environment, copy the <PA_Home>/conf/pa.jwk file, and save it with the generated JSON file.
