List BIG-IP Next Instance Backups on Central Manager

In the Central Manager GUI, you can create/schedule BIG-IP Next Instance backups, but outside of the listing shown there, you can't download the files from that view if you want to archive them for off-box requirements. Finding them in the Central Manager command line to download them via secure copy (scp) requires some kubernetes-fu knowhow, mainly, interrogating the persistent volume claims and persistent volumes:

kubectl get pvc mbiq-local-storage-pv-claim -o yaml | grep volumeName
kubectl get pv <volumename result> -o yaml | grep "path: "

This script takes the guesswork out of all that and let's you focus on more important things. Example output:

admin@cm1:~$ ./lbu.sh

Backup path: /var/lib/rancher/k3s/storage/pvc-ae75faee-101e-49eb-89f7-b66542da1281_default_mbiq-local-storage-pv-claim/backup
