backup
Use the following commands to backup all settings or logs on your FortiAnalyzer.
When you back up the unit settings from the vdom_admin account, the backup file contains global settings and the settings for each VDOM. When you back up the unit settings from a regular administrator account, the backup file contains the global settings and only the settings for the VDOM to which the administrator belongs.
