Hello,
we are performing a backup according to the documentation: Configure and Run the Backup Task
However, when we restore from the backup, the manually created tasks are not restored. As per official documentation:
- Component - All related data that make up components within the repository manager
- Configuration - General administrative configurations such as scheduled tasks and email server configuration
- Security - All user and access rights management content
Does this mean manual tasks are not restored?
Kind regards
Sebastian
Hello community,
can somebody clarify this issue?

Hey there, @technology-operations . I’ve just verified this works as expected on 3.53.0, manual tasks that I created are in fact restored. My steps were:
- Create a manual backup task
- Run the backup task
- Stop Repository
- Copy the backup files into the restore directory
- Rename my sonatype-work/db directory out of the way
- Start Repository to trigger its restore from backup
- Validate that the manual task appears in the UI
It might make sense to upgrade and revalidate in case you’re being impacted by an older, resolved bug.
Hello @mprescott,
thanks for the detailed explanation.
I followed every step of your explanation, but I only see the scheduled tasks.
I’m running Version 3.37 of Nexus, so this might be a issue with an older version.
Out of curiosity: Can you make a backup in an older version of Nexus, and then restore the backup in a newer Nexus version?
Kind regards
Sebastian
We create the backup task via the UI, task name is “Admin - Export Databases for Export”.
I followed every step of it, but only the scheduled
