There are two ways to do upload a backup to the MCOECN: - Create a backup on your local docker instance, and upload it to SSDT-UPLOADS, the same as you would when requesting support from SSDT.
This backup process is documented in the following SSDT WIKI article: https://wiki.ssdt-ohio.org/display/rtd/Backup+USxS+Databases The upload process is documented in the following SSDT WIKI article: https://wiki.ssdt-ohio.org/display/rtd/Securely+Send+Files+to+SSDT+for+Support
- The MCOECN provides a hosted virtual machine for Docker testing to each ITC, and some ITCs do scripted backups of their local Redesign instances to this server. If you are already backing up local instances to MCOECN, you already have a backup that you can use.

Backup Naming ConventionNOTE: It is important that the backup filename follows a rigid format: <IRN>-<District Name>-<Application>db.<timestamp>.backup.gz One small nuance, there is no dash between USAS and "DB" ,USPS and "DB", and WORKFLOWS and "DB" in the name, but there IS a dash between "Inventory" and "DB" in the backup filename. Examples: USPS 047589libertycenter-uspsdb.2022-03-01-03-10-06.backup.gz USAS 043679bryan-usasdb.2022-02-08-02-26-01.backup.gz WORKFLOWS 051201ct-workflowsdb.2022-03-03-01-09-35.backup.gz INVENTORY 046011unionlocal-inventory-dbinventorydb.2022-02-11-13-00-05.backup.gz

Whatever follows the IRN for the district name/code is what will be used in the final URL to access the application. |
Below are the steps to create the test instance in the MCOECN Service Broker. Make sure you can log into http://cloud.managementcouncil.org and see "Service Broker", and the catalog items. If this is the first time your ITC is using MCOECN Hosting, we may need to create an MCOECN.ORG account for you, or grant access to the VRA portal to your existing account. From the VRA Service Broker, run "USxS-RunAsTest" and choose the information for the district you want to test out. Image RemovedThe USxS-RunAsTest item will:Find your backup file by the Tip |

IRN must be a full six digit IRN padded with Leading Zeros. This is important...the VRA item to create the test instance will fail if it cannot find the full IRN. |
