Backup Now


There are features and functions used in Arista NetVisor UNUM and Insight Analytics that are common throughout the user interface (UI). Please refer to the Common Functions section for more information on the use of these functions and features.

Selecting Manager → Fabric → Maintenance → Backup Now triggers the process.


Backups are stored on an NFS Server (when configured) or the local NetVisor UNUM instance.
