Description
|
||
-----------
|
||
|
||
This script saves the current configuration to fallback
|
||
[partition ↗️](https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Partitions).
|
||
It can also copy-over the RouterOS installation when run interactively
|
||
or just before a feature update.
|
||
|
||
For this to work you need a device with sufficient flash storage that is
|
||
properly partitioned.
|
||
|
||
To make you aware of a possible issue a scheduler logging a warning is
|
||
added in the backup partition's configuration. You may want to use
|
||
[log-forward](log-forward.md) to be notified.
|
||
|
||
> ⚠️ **Warning**: By default only the configuration is saved to backup
|
||
> partition. Every now and then you should copy your installation over
|
||
> for a recent RouterOS version! See below for options.
|
||
|
||
Requirements and installation
|
||
-----------------------------
|
||
|
||
Just install the script:
|
||
|
||
$ScriptInstallUpdate backup-partition;
|
||
|
||
Configuration
|
||
-------------
|
||
|
||
The configuration goes to `global-config-overlay`, the only parameter is:
|
||
|
||
* `BackupPartitionCopyBeforeFeatureUpdate`: copy-over the RouterOS
|
||
installation when a feature update is pending
|
||
|
||
> ℹ️ **Info**: Copy relevant configuration from
|
||
> [`global-config`](../global-config.rsc) (the one without `-overlay`) to
|
||
> your local `global-config-overlay` and modify it to your specific needs.
|
||
|
||
Usage and invocation
|
||
--------------------
|
||
|
||
Just run the script:
|
||
|
||
/system/script/run backup-partition;
|
||
|
||
When run interactively from terminal it supports to copy-over the RouterOS
|
||
installation when versions differ.
|
||
|
||
Creating a scheduler may be an option:
|
||
|
||
/system/scheduler/add interval=1w name=backup-partition on-event="/system/script/run backup-partition;" start-time=09:30:00;
