Saving Configuration Backup on USB of Mapped Drive

Post by JoeBrewer »

Good afternoon, I'm wondering if anyone has found a way to backup the configuration onto a separate media, such as USB stick or Mapped Drive automatically instead of having to manually move the backup to USB.
Currently we use a Cisco 240M5 with local storage of 60TB in Raid 5, we backup about 750GB a day to local storage. Recently due to a hardware failure, we had to completely rebuild the server, thus losing my configuration backup as well. I need to find a way to automatically offload the configuration backup to one of these two methods.

Hi,

There are two options:

A) Create a share-based repository and point the configuration backup there.

B) Create a rotated-drive backup repository atop of the flash drive and point the configuration backup there.

Thanks!

Another option is to use a file copy job to copy the config backup off to another location. I always recommend customers do this in order to follow the 3-2-1 rule with the configuration backup.
