Could someone help me to get a script to automate LTM backup.
Our environment doesnt allow me to use a script which uses unsecured ( eg FTP ) way of transfering files between servers; need a script which uses sftp or scp.

The Devcentral Wiki page is a useful starting point - loads of great examples of scripts etc. Check out the Advanced Design & Config Wiki page:

ssh user@f5mgmt b config save /config.ucs
scp user@f5mgmt:/config.ucs wherever
the creation of keypairs and config of ssh for keypair auth is left as an exercise for the student... As is replacing the (deprecated) use of bigpipe for tmsh....
