How to take backup of application in websphere application server through command line?

go to particular DMGR/Node profile/bin and run below command:

./backupconfig.sh -nostop


When we are taking a backup either from <WAS-Root>\bin or <Profile-Root>\bin or from Admin Console, should the Applications be stopped? or is it ok to take a backup even if the application is running?

you can take the backup without stopping the application using -nostop command.

Hi there are three types of backup possible. 

1. Application backup -- Can be taken from console using export backup. 

2. Profile backup -- Can be taken using backupconfig script. 

3. Entire binary backup - This is needed during fixpack update or any major upgradatiuon, please stop all JVMs and tar the entire folder of WAS installation including profiles.
