  • 1.  NSM Remote Backups

    Posted 03-03-2010 05:59

    Hi,

     

         Is there a way to manually issue a back of the NSM Database to an offdevice location?  I know I can ssh into the NSM and re-configure the box to do off-site backups.  The issue is I just want to do the backup manually.

     

    Any Ideas?

     

    Thanks

    Since the local backups are usually stored in the /var/netscreen/dbbackup directory, you can write a small script to rsync this directory or if you want a single backup, then /var/netscreen/dbbakcup/backup1 into the remote site.

     

    You can execute this manually or maybe put it in the cron weekly.

     

    Does this help ?

     

    Thanks,

    Chandra

    Best way is to mount these 2 directories to NAS, which is supported by Juniper:

     

     /var/netscreen/DevSvr/logs
     /var/netscreen/dbbackup

     

    Then use another host in your network to mount these 2 directories read only and do the backup.
