Maximo Essentials V7.1 - Implementer’s Guide

For more detail about implementing cron tasks Please refer to the Maximo Asset 
Management Essentials System Administration guide:

After the installation is complete, it is advisable to create an image of your 
environment, backup procedures depend on the size of your database and the 
type of operation you are running. For instance, you coudl back up to:

��

Hard Disk Drive: Lets you restore your system quickly

��

Tape Drive; Slower, but you can keep multiple tapes of backups

��

CDs, DVDs, diskettes : Limited capacity, but is useful for smaller databases, 
archive files, or specific executables.

Schedule and regularly perform system and database backups. It is advisable 
you perform system restores from the production environment to your 
development/acceptance environment on regular intervals to test this procedure.

In having taken the sizing considerations of the previous chapter into account it is 
advisable to monitor the performance of Maximo on a continuous basis. This step 
will also form part of the user acceptance testing. However there are many 
methods you can implement to improve and maintain the application’s 
performance on a continuous basis.

If your implementation increases in size, an increase in workload or system 
enlargement over time consider load balancing the server environments, server 
clustering is a recommended solution by which you can distribute user loads over 
various application servers to maintain consistent server performance.

If the users are based in one location, ensure that the regional settings of their 
workstations are matching to that of their region, a common issue could be date 
and time format conflicts.
