VE F5 13.1 Proper back up and restore procedure.
I have configured F5 VE 13.1 with LTM module as Active Standby mode. 1.I want to know what is the process to properly back up the whole system for preparing for a disaster recovery. 2.Only one config I changed is alerts for traps and emails rest all out of box rest all done via config wizard/portal. 3.Currently I am planning to take VM backups for cloning. 4.Periodically am taking Archives backups of the F5 system to USC and exporting manually before I modify the system. 5.Is there anything I am missing.? 6.Can we script this whole process of exporting the USC file automatically export to a file-share.
In case of DR , I plan to restore the VM form backup 1.Use the USC and import the configuration 2.May be call F5 to port the licenses to new host. 3.Is this a good plan. Anything missing Regards
