Per Avro Arrows team discussion on August 1, 2023 and shared with Team Medevac in the teams channel:
IMPORTANT: this does not apply to CAMIS or eMER as these deployments are managed by pipelines.
A folder named _backup folder should exist in the parent directory of the development or acceptance staging server the solution is being deployed to.
the main reasons for the decision are:
it reduces the possibility of accidentally deleting the backup folder.
it makes it easier to backup the files that are currently deployed without accidentally nesting the backup folder inside a backup.
_backup contain a subfolder with the application name.
If you don’t find
_backup folder on the parent of a development or acceptance staging server,
the subfolder for an applicationcreate them.
An example, for \\ncrws499\catcappsx\Saf-Sec-Sur\2
a _backup folder exists at the parent level: \\ncrws499\catcappsx\Saf-Sec-Sur\2\_backups.
each application has its own subfolder where the related backup zip files are stored.
