@jeelet I yet to write a document for backup and restore
We can backup the storage database in two formats. 1. JSON, 2. YAML
NOTE: Metric database(influx db) backup not covered by MyController v2, you have to do it manually

steps to run backup

1. Setup add a backup handler

• Operatons >> Handlers click on Add
• Enter the details as follows
• 

2. Run manual Backup

• Add backup locations in Settings >> Backup and Restore >> Backup Locations
• 
• Click on Settings >> Backup and Restore >> Backup
• 
• Click on refresh button in Settings >> Backup and Restore
• 

3. Setup automatic backup

• Add a schedule to run a backup in Operations >> Schedules
• 
• handler parameter backup_yaml as follows
• 
• automatic backup scheduled for every 6 hours once

Please let me know if the steps are not clear.
