Feature Request - AHV Web Console backup config schedule

[Coldfirex]

Howdy,
I would like to request the ability to setup a scheduled configuration backup of the Nutanix Veeam Web Console GUI. Currently it is on demand only.

Additionally it would be convenient:
* to not force a password during backup of the configuration
* dump to a UNC path, etc for scheduled backups of the config

1.0 build 342

We've tracked this as a requirement; schedule should be added in one of the next product releases. Thanks!

Hello,

When should we expect to have the ability to schedule AHV configuration backup?

Workaround - We had same problem. We have up to 6 Clusters and a scheduled config backup is missing.

I created a small python based project which triggerd the backup and save it...
https://github.com/claranet/veeam-ahv-p ... fig-backup

Write a shell script
/srv/veeam-ahv-backup/backup.sh

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

export PROXY_PASSWORD='....' # The Proxy password for user veeam
export PROXY_HOSTNAME='....' # The hostname to connect to
export BACKUP_PASSWORD='...' # The Password to protect the Backup

docker run -v /srv/veeam-ahv-backup:/backup -e PROXY_HOSTNAME -e PROXY_PASSWORD -e BACKUP_PASSWORD claranet/veeam-ahv-proxy-config-backup:latest

Make it executeable and trigger it using cron scheduler

In 4.0 configuration backup can be taken by schedule as a apart of VBR configuration backup (if an encryption password is specified)
