Data
The Server Management | Data tab allows administrators to perform 6 key functions:
Export the current RapidIdentity Appliance configuration.
Import a Saved RapidIdentity Appliance configuration.
Update libraries to support or removed drivers or community adapters.
Manage public images.
Perform operations.
Export Migration Archive
Export Migration Archive allows an administrator to download a zip file of the current RapidIdentity configuration.
Note
RapidIdentity does not currently support backing up a database that points to Microsoft SQL Server.
RapidIdentity Configuration backups can include all configuration files, database and audit tables, and shared files. Administrators can export the configuration at any time and choose a configuration export to match their organization's backup and restore policy.
 |
The downloaded zip file can then be stored in a backup repository as well as imported into a new RapidIdentity appliance.
Follow these three steps to export the current RapidIdentity configuration.
Navigate to Appliance > Management > Data tab > Export Migration Archive.
Determine whether the export download should include the database configuration, audit tables, or shared files. Check any necessary checkboxes.
Click Start Export.
The zip file export and download process should begin immediately and the resultant file should be stored in the browser's configured location for downloaded files.
Common Libraries
Common Libraries are the interface to manage drivers such as JDBC. RapidIdentity Connect community adapters are managed through Connect.

Managing Database Drivers
Database drivers can be installed on RapidIdentity Appliance as JAR files, and once these files are installed then the corresponding functionality is available throughout the intended RapidIdentity components.
Follow these 5 to install a database driver:
Navigate to Server Management > Data > Common Libraries.
Click Choose File to upload the corresponding JAR file.
Navigate to the Clusters tab, click the blue curved arrow to restart Tomcat, and click OK in the dialog box that appears.
A processing window will appear. When Tomcat is finished restarting, the Clusters tab will be shown. The JAR file is uploaded and the corresponding database driver is ready for use.
Install the MySQL Driver
RapidIdentity supports MySQL as a database and the MySQL driver can be installed after the initial RapidIdentity installation process is complete.
Follow these 5 steps to install the MySQL database driver:
Navigate to Appliance > Server Management > Data > Common Libraries.
In the Upload New Library interface, click Download it from here.
Select the operating system that matches the platform on which RapidIdentity is installed and then download the file from MySQL.
Return to RapidIdentity Appliance, upload the JAR file, and click Start Upload.
Navigate to the Clusters tab, click the blue curved arrow to restart Tomcat, and click OK in the dialog box that appears.
Public Images
Public Images allow organizations to upload a custom image that can be used throughout RapidIdentity for the purposes of branding.
 |
Once an image is uploaded, a URL is generated and this URL can be used for custom CSS enhancements.
To upload an image, click Choose File and select the desired image.
To delete an image, click Delete Selected Files and click OK.
Operations
Operations provide administrators with 3 functions:
Clear the Database Cluster Cache.
Reload Cluster Job.
Reload Cluster LDAP Schema.
Once any one of these buttons are pressed, a pop-up window appears to confirm the process is complete.
