It depends on what you mean by automating a backup. Do you want to take UCS Backups? TXT File Backups?
CRON Jobs from a Linux Box Box can automate everything. Any major monitoring solutions can automate UCS and TXT File backups. BigIQ automates this process. Old EM still works and takes UCS backup Jobs.

Hi Dali,
Thanks for sharing the useful article. In my case ssh is already configured so do I still require to generate crypto key and why do we require to generate it?
Thanks,
