Save configuration to fallback partition
========================================
[⬅️ Go back to main README](../README.md)

> **Info**: This script can not be used on its own but requires the base
> installation. See [main README](../README.md) for details.
Description
-----------
This script saves the current configuration to fallback
[partition](https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Partitions).
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**: Only the configuration is saved to backup partition.
> Every now and then you should copy your installation over for a recent
> RouterOS version!
