Backing up a switch configuration

NOTE
The Enhanced Group Management (EGM) license must be activated on a switch to perform this
procedure and to use the supportSave module.
If a periodic backup is scheduled at the SAN level, that backup will apply to all switches from all
fabrics discovered. Any new fabrics being discovered are automatically added to the list of fabrics
to be backed up.
NOTE
If a backup is scheduled for more than one fabric and some of the fabrics contain common
members, the backup will include the unique switch configuration values obtained from the fabrics.
You can schedule a backup of one or more switch configurations. The configuration files are stored
in the Management application database.
