Backing up the node configs

Note: Perform this step prior to the upgrade.

To backup configs:
 

Log in to the NSP.


Open Device Management, All Operations.


Select Create an Operation.


Select the right backup for your nodes: i.e. "nsp-ne-backup" for SR OS, SR OS 7210, SR.

Note: An NDX file is required to perform a backup on nodes configured in classic or mixed mode. The backup operation fails if an NDX file with the same name as the configuration file defined in the bof file is not present in the same folder.

You can configure a backup to include debug files located on the same cf as the configuration file.


Select png1.png TARGETS and select either NEs or Predefined NE groups.


Select all options required.

Under View/Edit Schedule, select either “Run immediately” or “Setup up the schedule”.


You can view the backup status from Device Management, All Operations.


Backup files can be viewed from Device Management, Managed Network Elements. Click on the NE and then select png25.png Review backups, View all backup files.
