Back up configuration settings for policies, SSH, network, and SNMP files regularly to make sure that you can restore Trellix ESM if you encounter a system failure.
Backups are only compatible with the current version of the device. You can't install a backup of a previous version on an updated Trellix ESM device.
From the Trellix ESM dashboard, click
and select System Properties.Click the → tab.
Click Settings Backup.
Determine how often to back up settings (frequency and number of days). You can also set the time of day for the backup.
Note
By default, Trellix ESM automatically backs up your Trellix ESM settings every 7 days. The default backup location resides on the Trellix ESM device. To prevent oversized backup files, configure daily backups.
Indicate where to save the backup settings: either the local Trellix ESM or a remote location.
Test the connection by clicking Connect.
To complete a manual backup now, click Back up now.
Trellix ESM creates a compressed settings file at the location you set.
Define the system backup settings.
