Description

HPE OneView provides the ability to save your configuration settings and management data to a backup file and enables you to use that backup to restore a corrupted appliance in the event of a catastrophic failure.

The backup process involves creating a backup file and then downloading that file so that you can store it to a safe and secure (off-appliance) location for future use. You can schedule automatic backup operations and designate a remote location for the backup file.

Use this Cmdlet to save the created appliance backup files. Use the -SaveRemoteOnly parameter to save the backup file(s) to the remote location if configured on the appliance.
