Hi @Padmasree P

While restoring data from the xml backup, you have to import the whole zip and not the individual xml in it.

Active Objects contain the data from the new data storage that is available in JIRA.  https://developer.atlassian.com/server/framework/atlassian-sdk/active-objects/

And entities contains everything else.

Hi Fazila,

will online backup service, backup the entire db everytime on schedule, or is it taking incremental backup on every run

It's everything, every time.
