Export option in Software section

L1 Bithead

Hi, 

I have a PAN-OS VM on version 11.0. I've noticed the option "Export" on the page of software update but couldn't figure it out. 

The list of SCP profiles is empty even though I have an SCP server on my host.

I have also created SCP profile under devices:

Would be thankful for any help

Certainly! In your PAN-OS VM version 11.0, the “Export” option in the software update page serves a specific purpose. When you click “Export,” it allows you to generate and export a configuration snapshot. You’ll select an XML file containing your running configuration (for example, running-config.xml). 

By saving this exported file to an external location, you create a backup of your current configuration. This backup can be useful for restoring your configuration if any issues arise during an upgrade or if you need to revert to a previous state.

Hi @YonatanG ,

 

I don't see any known issues for SCP within 11.0. Are you still unable to select your SCP server profile? If you go into the CLI, and type scp export then the ?, could you try working with one of the available outputs and specify your SCP server IP that way?

For some reason, The option didn't work on 10.2.6 as well as on 11.0. Downgrading to 10.2.8 specifically solved the issue.
