Backing Up and Restoring the System

You can back up and restore the appliance from the appliance management interface.

Backup and restore operations are available in the TCA Appliance Manager interface except when restricted by a cloud service provider.

Using the TCA Appliance Manager interface, you can:

• Generate a backup of the VMware Telco Cloud Automation Manager and VMware Telco Cloud Automation Control Plane (TCA-CP)
• Use the backup file to restore to a healthy system.
• Schedule a backup operation on an hourly, daily, or weekly frequency or generate a backup manually.
• Upload the backup file to an SFTP or FTP server.
• Download the backup file to your local machine.
