You can use Protector to back up all of your Ops Center products. You can then restore your backups if you must recover one or more of your Ops Center applications.
Backing up Ops Center
applications
To ensure that backups are available when you must restore a product, always
back up to remote storage. The remote storage can be a repository that is proxied by
an HCP node, HCP for cloud scale, or Amazon S3. When
using any of these remote storage options for backup, the repository must be hosted
(proxied) by a client node, which can be a standard client node or the master node.
Note: You must use a generation 2 repository.
