SBC EMA allows the user to generate the system backup file. The user can restore the configuration files from the storage location. During this process, the system will restart and the user has to re-login, once the system is up and running. This is useful if you upgrade the SBC EMA and need to reload the old configurations.

Note

SBC stores up to 10 manual and 7 automatic backup files.

Earlier, due to security reasons, it was impossible to upload any back-up files to the SBC via EMA or EMA Platform Mode. We can upload back-up files from an external source. To know more on how to upload the back up files from an external source, refer to System Administration - File Upload.

Note

For any reason, if you wish to re-install the SBC Application, take a back-up of the application to restore it when needed. The back-up files can now be stored in an external source.

Warning

All the back-up files should start with the naming convention:

  • "config_<filename>", and should end with ".tar.gz"

or

  • "auto_backup_config_<filename>", and should end with ".tar.gz"

For example: "config_BackupFile1.tar.gz" or "auto_backup_config_BackupFile1.tar.gz".
