The remote backup utility schedules and takes the backup of an AE Services server to a remote machine.

The remote backup utility works only if the remote machine has a Linux OS.

As a root user on the AE Services server, run the following command for the remote backup utility configuration:

sh /opt/mvap/bin/scheduleRemoteBackUp -i <IP> -u <USERNAME> -p <PASSWORD> -f <D|W|M> -d <Backup Directory>

Once the remote backup utility is configured, you can check the status whether the AE Services backup is scheduled or not by running the following command:

sh /opt/mvap/bin/scheduleRemoteBackUp status

The following table provides the description of parameters:

Table 1: Remote backup utility - settings

Username	User name of the remote machine
Password	Password of the remote machine

Once the validation of IP is completed, remote backup utility creates a password less connection for transferring the backup to the remote machine.
