1 Description
This instruction describes how to enable automatic deletion of manual system backups in the managed element.
Enabling automatic deletion of manual system backups when the maximum number of manual system backups is below the existing number of stored manual system backups results in immediate deletion of one or more stored manual system backups to match the maximum number.
For information on how to modify the maximum number of manual system backups, refer to Change Maximum Number of Manual Backups.
2 Procedure
2.1 Enable Automatic Deletion of Manual Backups
Prerequisites
- No documents are required.
- No tools are required.
- The following conditions must apply:
- The existing value of attribute autoDelete is DISABLED.
- An Ericsson Command-Line Interface (ECLI) session in Exec mode is in progress.
Steps
If the number of backups is already over the value of attribute maxStoredManualBackups, this operation deletes one or more existing backups. Consider to export important backups before enabling this operation.
- Navigate to the BrmBackupHousekeeping managed object, for example:
>dn ManagedElement=NODE06ST,SystemFunctions=1,BrM=1,BrmBackupManager=SYSTEM_DATA,BrmBackupHousekeeping=SYSTEM_DATA.
- Enter Config mode:
(BrmBackupHousekeeping=SYSTEM_DATA)>configure
- Enable automatic deletion of manual backups:
(config-BrmBackupHousekeeping=SYSTEM_DATA)>autoDelete=ENABLED
Depending on the number of stored manual backups and the value of the maximum number of manual backups, commit of this change can result in immediate deletion of stored manual system backups.
- Note:
- The value of the autoDelete attribute cannot be cleared by the no autoDelete ECLI command.
- Commit the change:
(config-BrmBackupHousekeeping=SYSTEM_DATA)>commit
- Verify the change:
(BrmBackupHousekeeping=SYSTEM_DATA)>show -v
The following is an example output:
BrmBackupHousekeeping=SYSTEM_DATA autoDelete=ENABLED <default> [...]
