Cause
Resolution
a) SSH to RSA AM Primary server(can use putty ssh client tool) and login as rsaadmin.
b)Navigate to /opt/rsa/am/utils
cd /opt/rsa/am/utils
c) Obtain the password for rsa_dba user. Steps are shown in the below example.
rsaadmin@am84p:> cd /opt/rsa/am/utils
rsaadmin@am84p:/opt/rsa/am/utils> ./rsautil manage-secrets -a get com.rsa.db.dba.password
Please enter OC Administrator username: <enter the Operations Console administrator name>
Please enter OC Administrator password: <enter the Operations Console administrator password> com.rsa.db.dba.password:<password_would_be_shown_here>
d) Copy the <password_would_be_shown_here> which is required to access RSA AM internal DB in next step.
e) Navigate to opt/rsa/am/pgsql/bin and connect the DB. Steps are shown in the below example.
rsaadmin@am84p:/opt/rsa/am/utils> cd ../pgsql/bin
rsaadmin@am8-p:/opt/rsa/am/pgsql/bin> ./psql -h localhost -p 7050 -d db -U rsa_dba Password for user rsa_dba: <enter password_would_be_shown_here from step (d) above> psql.bin (9.4.1) SSL connection (protocol: TLSv1.2, cipher: ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, bits: 256, compression: off) Type "help" for help.
db=#
f) Retrieve the timeout value. Query as shown in the below example.
db=# SELECT * FROM rsa_rep.ims_config_value WHERE name LIKE '%auth_manager.backup_restore.timeout.minutes%';
id | instance_id | name | value
----------------------------------+------------------+---------------------------------------------+-------
ee9c45b39a17893b4bfc6b4d618f58a9 | 0000-Global-0000 | auth_manager.backup_restore.timeout.minutes | 60
(1 row)
g) Update the timeout value to 120 minutes as shown in the below query.
db=# UPDATE rsa_rep.ims_config_value SET VALUE = '120' WHERE name LIKE '%auth_manager.backup_restore.timeout.minutes%';
UPDATE 1
h) Now Run the backup again from Operations console.
Note: If the backup fails even after changing the value to 120 min, please increase the value to 180 minutes.
