Backup and Restore service

Hi Team,

Do we have any plan to add the interfaces for the backup and restore redfish configuration?

We could have two ways:

1) Redfish provides a specific endpoint for back up and restore of the configuration with the links of the resource.

       Backup:
      -> Client will fire get request on the backup and restore services
      -> Gets the link of the resources where the backup is required
      -> Client will fire multiple GET request to the redfish endpoints.
      -> Save it at client side in the form of a file etc.

       Restore:
      -> Client parse this file and fire PATCH/POST request to update the redfish endpoints.

      eg: gerrit.openbmc-project.xyz/c/openbmc/docs/+/18163



2)   
         We can create actions in manager schema
              Backup: 
                      parameters("Resource List")
              This function returns the json file.

              Restore:
                      Parameters(Json File)
