Backing up AOS8 controller configs

  • 1.  Backing up AOS8 controller configs

    Posted Oct 09, 2020 10:46 AM

    Hello,

     

    We are looking to automate the backup of our cluster configs, (and save them externally). I see that our MM config is already backed up in Airwave, but the md config doesn't appear to be part of that backup.

     

    When I go to one of the cluster members in Airwave, unllike the MM, it doesn't have a 'config' option when I hover over it, it gives me 'Manage' and 'Monitor'. What do I need to do to get it to backup the config that is applied to the cluster members for us?

     

    Or is there a way we can specify an external config backup server (not Airwave) in AOS8? I couldn't find anything.

     

    Thank you,

     

    Guy

    Airwave makes a backup of the MM configs and flashbackup.

    The flashbackup contains all of the configs of the MDs.

    Great - so if we had to do a 'restore' from one of those backup entries in your image we would get the whole config back including our clusters?
