Before you begin:
  • Bamboo will be unavailable while the export process completes. Depending on the number of builds and tests, the export may take a long time to complete and may require large amounts of disk space. Please make sure you have enough disk space before proceeding.
  • Bamboo will not export if it detects that plans are currently being built. Please ensure that you do not have plans building (see 1.2 Viewing Bamboo's Current Activity).
  • There is a bug in Bamboo 1.2 which causes the dependency associations to not be exported along with the plans. If you are using Bamboo 1.2, please upgrade to Bamboo 1.2.1 for a fix.
  • Bamboo uses the third party TrueZip library to create zip archives. TrueZIP currently implements the ZIP32 specification only. This limits the maximum ZIP file length to 4GB. Unfortunately, Bamboo exports will fail if the resulting ZIP file is over 4GB. As a workaround, please export Bamboo without artifacts.
  • Exporting Bamboo doesn't work with Bamboo versions prior to 1.2.2, if LDAP is turned on. If you want to export Bamboo data, please turn off LDAP. Please see 5.13.2 Integrating Bamboo with LDAP for further details.

To export data for backup,

  1. Click the 'Administration' link in the top navigation bar.
  2. Click the 'Export link in the left navigation column.
  3. Type the absolute 'File Path' to which Bamboo is to export data. For example, 'c:/Documents and Settings/<me>/bamboo/bamboohome/manual_backups/export.zip'.
  4. Select the 'Export Artifacts' check-box if you want to backup your build artifacts.
  5. Click the 'Export' button.
