Another Bash script to backup a BIG-IP device.

The backup script is executed from the BIG-IP device and the UCS file created is copied to a remote SCP server. After the file has been copied, it is deleted locally. All the backup steps are logged to the local syslog.

    Nice! As you have shown in github the icall event manager is used but also you can schedule it with just a cronjob or the script except bash can be python as F5 has Python on it but for UCS file transfer bash seems the better option.
