# Introduction

In Q4 2021, a new system for generating ConfigDB backups on MinIO has been added. Periodically, a backup of the ConfigDB databases is launched and stored in a zip file in the MinIO database.

# How to schedule the backup process

The administrator user accesses **Dev Tools > Centralized Configurations,** edit the** Scheduler **configuration and modify the *BackupMinio.cron *field with the *cron *expression that you want to be executed in the backup process .

```
BackupMinio:
  cron: "0 59 23 ? * * *"
  timeout: 24
  timeUnit: HOURS
```

> ℹ️ By default, it is set to run every 24 hours.

Once the configuration has been edited, it may be necessary to restart the RTDBMaintainer module of Plataforma to take the changes.

# How to query the backups

With the Platform sysadmin user, you can access the menu option **Tools > Files Management** where a list of all the ConfigDB backups that have been saved to date will be displayed. Each backup will be identified with its creation date in the following format: *YYMMDD_HHMMSS.zip *
