Do a full backup from a shell console

You can do a full backup from the sensor shell console.

When you perform a full backup, only the following traces are retained:
  • Those generated via Request custom trace (from Other actions)
  • Those generated via Request a trace (from Nodes and Links)
  • Those from Alerts
  1. Open a shell console.
  2. To create a new backup, enter the command:
    n2os-fullbackup
  3. Download the backup file.
    Note: For example:
    scp admin@<sensor_ip>:/data/tmp/
    <backup_hostname_date_version.nozomi_backup> .
The backup file has been saved to the folder.
