      Looking for help to backup our scheduled jobs in XO. I see an option to backup VMs and Metadata, but no option to backup the backup jobs.

      Background
      I had to reset our XO configuration today (community edition - built from sources) using this link. Upon logging in, I noticed the backup jobs were lost (as expected). Once I re-added the backup jobs, I could not find a way to backup the backup jobs. The reset was necessary because an old SR Remote was unreachable, and I could not remove it in XO. This old/unreachable SR was causing issues with restoring VMs and metadata (UI would spin and hang)

      Thanks for any pointers.

        Yes, you can backup XO settings with all its jobs in a dedicated backup job. It's new backup/metadata/XO. That's it.

            @olivierlambert AH! Thanks, I missed that before.

            What if the XO config is corrupt. Is there any way to only export the backup schedule?

              The config should be very simple to read, it's a plain JSON file.
