Tableau Server TSM Maintenance Services


There are three TSM Maintenance Services that are installed on every node of the cluster: Database Maintenance, Backup/Restore and Site Import/Export.

 

Processes

Database Maintenance, Backup/Restore and Site Import/Export.

StatusStatus of the TSM Maintenance services are not visible on the Status Page. Use the TSM CLI to view status. For more information, see View Server Process Status
LoggingLogs generated by these processes are located in C:\ProgramData\Tableau\Tableau Server\data\tabsvc\logs\, in the databasemaintenance, backuprestore and siteimportexport directories. For more information, see Tableau Server Logs and Log File Locations

These services remain stopped unless a specific maintenance task that requires them is initiated by the administrator. Additional high-availability configuration is not required for these services. These services are used only for maintenance tasks such as backup and restore and should not impact the functioning of Tableau Server for the end users.
