Tip: How to do a ReadyNAS config backup from shell
Hi,
Just wanted to let everyone know how to do a config backup outside of frontview, for example in a daily cron...
wget --no-check-certificate --http-user=admin --http-passwd=password -O readynas_config_`date +%Y%m%d`.zip "https://readynas/get_handler?command=ConfigBackupBackup&PAGE=System&OPERATION=set&download_file_name=readynas.zip&everything=&shares=on&services=on&user_group=on&network=on&misc=on&data="
This will backup all configs, except the data....
and yes, it can be run from the readynas itself...
enjoy,
Fred

- ONESIMUSAspirantCan this be configured to save the backup into a share folder with the ReadyNAS hostname in the filename?
Also can this work with https://127.0.0.1/ instead?
I want to create a script that is generic so I can use it across several ReadyNAS DUO boxes.
Thanks. - fdullemondAspirantHave you tried running the command before writing up this question ?
