Help! - SCP Automated Backup file using Password
Hello Gentlemen, I need to push the automated configuration backup files to a Windows server. I tried this by copying the pub_key on to the destination server where this didn't work as the destination windows server is not supporting key based authentication. The F5 LTM devices are running on TMOS version 11.4.1 I need to authenticate the destination server with password and I'm not sure if the automation script in place is working as expected, request your assistance. Thanks for your help in advance! Please find the code below: ! /bin/bash var1=date rm /automation/backup/* devicename=F5LTM01_`date +%F`.ucs tmsh save /sys ucs /automation/backup/$devicename scp /automation/backup/$devicename F5Backup@XX.XX.XX.XX:/F5Backup echo "Back up File copied to the Back Up Server(XX.XX.XX.XX) successfully to /F5Backup/ directory"
BIG-IQ Archive Error
Hello, We currently have a BIG-IQ that was successfully performing backups to the backup server until the server guys implemented some stricter SSH timeouts. From what I gather, the archive is failing because the BIG-IQ seems to open up the SCP connection before the backup finishes. Once the backup has finished it then proceeds to pass the username but the SSH session has timed out by that time. Does anyone know of a way to change the order in which the BIG-IQ does the backup, so change it from SSH -> Backup -> SSH credentials -> copy file to Backup -> SSH -> SSH credentials -> copy file to Backup?
