    Creating a backup of config on Zabbix - how to download backup script?

    I'm new to Zabbix, just learning as I go and got completely stuck!
    Trying to create a backup of the Zabbix configuration on the Zabbix Hyper-V Appliance.
    I tried following the instructions at: https://zabbix.org/wiki/Docs/howto/d..._backup_script
    but all I get is an error stating "-bash: git: command not found"
    Can I download to a Windows PC and then transfer the backup files to the Zabbix appliance and if so, how to copy from windows onto Zabbix?
    many thanks

    First you need to install git from the Zabbix console - sudo apt install git (the sudo password is whatever your "appliance" user uses).

    Then you can run - git clone https://github.com/maxhq/zabbix-backup.git

    Then cd zabbix-backup Then ./zabbix-dump -h to see the help screens.

    That's as far as I've gotten for now!
