## Backing Up the Store

This section describes the example use case.

In this example, let us consider a secure KVStore that is deployed on 2 storage nodes with capacity 3 and replication factor 2. The storage nodes are on the host `phoenix581601` at ports 8000 and 7000. Let us call the storage nodes as storage node 1 (sn1) and storage node 2 (sn2).

You can check the topology of this store by pinging it using the runadmin utility. This will help you identify the name of the store, the replication masters and the running status of the store.

    kv->ping

Output:

    Pinging components of store mystore based upon topology sequence #112
    100 partitions and 2 storage nodes

You can see that the name of the store is `mystore` and it has 3 shards. The replication masters are `rg1-rn2`, `rg2-rn1` and `rg3-rn1`. The store is in `Running` state.
