backup
Creates an archive of UNIVERGE WL Control system files and optionally, user
file, in Unix tape archive (tar) format.
Syntax
backup system [tftp:/ip-addr/]filename [all | critical]
Defaults
The default is all.

Usage
You can create an archive located on a TFTP server or in the UNIVERGE
WL Controllers nonvolatile storage. If you specify a TFTP server as part of the
filename, the archive is copied directly to the TFTP server and not stored locally
on the UNIVERGE WL Controller.
Use the critical option if you want to back up or restore only the system-critical
files required to operate and communicate with the UNIVERGE WL Controller.
Use the all option if you also want to back up or restore Web Authentication
pages, backup configuration files, image files, and any other files stored in the
user files area of nonvolatile storage.
