Solace Community is getting a facelift!

On March 3rd we will be starting the process of migrating Solace Community to a new platform. As a result, Solace Community will go in to a temporary read-only state. You will still be able to come onto Solace Community and search through posts to find answers, but you won't be able to ask questions, post comments, or react in any way.

We hope to have the migration complete by Wednesday March 5th (or sooner), so please keep an eye out!

Scheduled Backup of HA Software Event Broker

Hi Dear Solace Community,

is there any way to schedule a automated HA backup every day like there is for the singlenode instances ? ( https://docs.solace.com/Admin/Creating-Local-Backups.htm#system_and_software_maint_tasks_Sched_backups )

I thought about the naive way of just creating on all three nodes (primary,backup,monitor) the automated schedule process for a singlenode but the commands seem different for creating a backup on a singlenode and for creating a backup on a HA node.

On a singlenode you would run ( https://docs.solace.com/Admin/Creating-Local-Backups.htm ):
```
solace> enable
solace# backup
```

On a HA setup you need to run on each node ( https://docs.solace.com/Admin/Backup-Restore-SW-EventBroker-HA-Configs.htm#Steps ):
```
solace-primary# copy current-config /configs/cfg_primary_AD_active
solace-backup# copy current-config /configs/cfg_backup_AD_inactive
solace-monitor# copy current-config /configs/cfg_monitor
```

The main difference being "backup" vs "copy current-config".
I am not sure if those commands result in the same backupfile in the end.

So my main question would be - does anyone here know of a way how to automate the backup creation on HA Brokers ?

Thanks in advance :-)
Greetings,
Jan-Filip
