Backing up SOAR Platform using the resSystemBackup command

Use resSystemBackup to back up the PostgreSQL database, keyvault, and attachments, and to encrypt the backup.

To back up without encryption, ssh to the SOAR Platform and run the following command:
sudo resSystemBackup
To encrypt the backup, run the following command:
sudo resSystemBackup --encrypt

The backup is placed in the /crypt/backups/ folder in the form of a gz file; for example, resilient-backup-20210426201138.tar.gz. The timestamp is appended to the file name for uniqueness. You can rename this file for clarity, and move it to a secure location.

The backup file remembers the KeyVault password scheme (cleartext or GPG encrypted as described in KeyVaults). Restoring that file also restores that scheme.

You can store the backup and, if you used encryption, its corresponding backup_passphrase file to a secure location for future use.
