Sorry to bump this thread, but been running into some issues.
Is it just me, or are the backups you get from SCP not the full backup of the device? I've only just noticed this now that I'm doing some analytics on the files themselves, but they aren't even close to full. On one device, a full backup from the GUI gets me a file with 40,000 lines. A scp backup using sys_config is just shy of 2,200. It doesn't have any vdoms. It's almost useless.
Is there a different command other than sys_config (or fgt-config) to get a proper, full backup?

nbctcp,
I've attached the script for you. You can change according to your needs.
PS.: Script only for Windows OS.

Holy,
I've used the Putty Key Generation (Looking in "ProgramFiles\PuTTY" If you have putty installed). There is a variable "Key" on the script file. To create the user "bkp" you can use the config below:
config system admin edit "bkpusr" set trusthost1 "backup IP address only - for best security" set vdom "root" set ssh-public-key1 "ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAABJQAAAQEAhIasKun...." set password ****** next end

The sys_config is not the full backup.

Yes, the command "sys_config" is a full backup !
I tested and compared both methods.

My mustard on this:
I'm doing SCP backups for a couple of customer FGTs and it's both
- just the same as 'Backup' from the Dashboard
- NOT the full backup
The files just contain the commands to transform a factoryreset config into the running config. All default settings are left out.
And I'm not dealing with VDOMs. So if anybody knows how to elicit the config for all VDOMs on a FGT then please post.
ede_pfau,
I'm doing backups with a script Batch (DOS) running on the Windows scheduler. It's work fine for me.
Best regards.
