Preparing to Execute the Script
The script is pretty straight forward, just need to define a few variables seen below and then you execute the script. I will walk you through the process.
1#Define Variables
2$UCS = "FQDNofUCS" #FQDN of UCS To COnnect To
3$Hostname = "ucs.lab.local" #Hostname to Upload backup to.
4$Protocol = "scp" #Transfer Protocol. ftp,scp,tftp,sftp
5$User = "ftpuser" #Username
6$Password = "ftpuser" #Password
7$MgmtBackupRemoteFile = "Full" #Location/Prefix of File. Location/Prefix will be in front of filename
8$ConfigBackupRemoteFile = "AllConfig" #Location/Prefix of File. Location/Prefix will be in front of filename
9$AdminState = "enable" #enable or disable
10$Schedule = "1day" #1day, 7day, 14day for daily, weekly or biweekly backups
Execute the Script
- Run .\Set-UCSPolicyBackupandExport.ps1
- Logon and UCSM, Navigate to Admin/All and Then select the Policy Backup & Export.
- Verify Settings.
