CirrostratusCorn Job script to automate backup and export F5OS
I am working on setting up a cron job in the F5OS rSeries lab to automate daily backups. The goal is to remove the previous day's backup, create a new backup with the hostname and date, verify its creation, and transfer it to a backup server.
Has anyone successfully implemented this on F5OS? Any insights or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Also BIG-IQ 8.3 and up support this option More Information on Downloading F5OS Velos Backups from BIG-IQ and this could be nice if you have many rSeries or Velos (F5OS) devices.

If you want to use the API see an article I did write some time ago:
