MeteoBridge TL-MR3020 Configuration Backup **solved**

Post by IC16 »

Setup: TL-MR3020 Running Linux 3.3.8 mips (BE), FW 1.4, MeteoBridge 2.4 (5389).

How do you backup the master configuration file on the MeteoBridge that contains all the network, station, weather network and push setup configuration data?

Thanks in advance for your help/ideas.

There is no feature on the web interface to do so.

When you login via ssh you will find the config file at "/root/meteobridge.conf".
While this contains the config data for the web interface, network settings needed for operation
are located in the "/etc/config/" folders. Network config files in there are generated by Meteobridge when
pressing "save and apply and reboot" button on "setup network" tab.

For us folks who are less computer inclined, perhaps in some future version of Meteobridge, you would be so kind as to add a "one click" button for exporting the complete configuration info. I guess this would infer a "one click" button for importing said file also.

That sounds reasonable. But I would spare the network data as importing that will normally do more harm than good.
As you need the Meteobridge already running fine in the network to import a configuration backup it will
not make sense to import another network configuration with good chances to render the unit no longer available in
the current network situation.

Any other pieces of information, that should not be restored?
Timezone looks like a candidate for not being restored to me.
