In this series, we are going to back up our NSX-T manager configs. I’ve prepared by SFTP server following this technote

Configure NSX Manager Backup

Login to NSX Manager UI using https://nsx-fqdn/ and click on the Backup & Restore option from the home page as shown.
 

Specify the following

  • IP/Hostname: Add IP of SFTP Server
  • Transfer Protocol: Choose SFTP
  • Port: 22
  • Username: ftp ussername
  • Password: password of the ftp user
  • Backup directory: Location on the ftp to store file
  • Filename Prefix: Any prefix you wish to define

To Schedule, a backup, click the change button next to scheduling and specify the frequency we need backups to happen

Our appliance is thus taken to our SFTP server.
