We have a few questions regarding the AP/SM configuration backups. We are excited about this functionality because it could save us a ton of time in restoration scenarios.
FYI we use on-premises cnMaestro.
1. Is it possible to backup only AP configs and not SM configs?
2. Is there a way to schedule automatic backups on a regular basis (i.e. Backup once an hour/day/week/month etc)?
3. Where are the configuration backups stored locally on cnMaestro?
4. Does cnMaestro have the ability to send configuration backups to an external server (SFTP, TFTP, SCP, etc)?
5. Currently after a configation backup we see the numbers of success/fail. Is it possible to see devices that failed configuration backup?
6. What is the intended purpose of the Export button? On our cnMaestro it redirects to a template page that 404s. We're assuming a zip file or similar is to be produced.
We are on version 1.6.2-r11. We are curious if there is a way backup only the AP configs to a remote server. If that is currently not possible, where can we find the configs on the cnmaestro on-premises? That way we can setup something temporary until a solution is provided via cnMaestro.
Currently we do not support the backup of the device configs whether it is AP or SM. You can download the configuration of a device currenlty by selecting that particular device in the tree and then navigate to the configuration page and click on the view device configuration link. You can see the config in the popup as well as you can download the config also.

What is this section under system->configuration titled "Global PMP/ePMP Configuration Backup" for, and where do I find the documentation at?
Sorry for the confusion. This feature was of beta quality and somehow got shipped with 1.6.2 version. We have removed it from 1.6.3 as it is still not ready. We will let you know the release version once feature is ready.
We use CnMaestro on premises Version1.6.3-r19. We are now close to 30 APs being managed and as we intend to steadily grow I am concerned of how can I backup CNMaestro config.
If this VM for whatever reason goes down, or storage gets corrupted I would like to quickly spin over a new VM and import CNMaestro config. As we speak we have under 200 MAC addreses stored on CnMaestro.
