Description
-----------
This script saves the current configuration to fallback
[partition](https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Partitions).
It can also copy-over the RouterOS installation when run interactively
or just before a feature update.
For this to work you need a device with sufficient flash storage that is
properly partitioned.
To make you aware of a possible issue a scheduler logging a warning is
added in the backup partition's configuration. You may want to use
[log-forward](log-forward.md) to be notified.
> ⚠️ **Warning**: By default only the configuration is saved to backup
> partition. Every now and then you should copy your installation over
> for a recent RouterOS version! See below for options.
Requirements and installation
-----------------------------
Just install the script:
$ScriptInstallUpdate backup-partition;
Configuration
-------------
The configuration goes to `global-config-overlay`, the only parameter is:
* `BackupPartitionCopyBeforeFeatureUpdate`: copy-over the RouterOS
installation when a feature update is pending
> ℹ️ **Info**: Copy relevant configuration from
> [`global-config`](../global-config.rsc) (the one without `-overlay`) to
> your local `global-config-overlay` and modify it to your specific needs.
Usage and invocation
--------------------
Just run the script:
/system/script/run backup-partition;
When run interactively from terminal it supports to copy-over the RouterOS
installation when versions differ.
Creating a scheduler may be an option:
/system/scheduler/add interval=1w name=backup-partition on-event="/system/script/run backup-partition;" start-time=09:30:00;
