Exporting a Complete Backup

If you want to take a complete backup of your Virtual Traffic Manager's cluster configuration, use zconf's export command. By default, the output of the export command is printed to STDOUT. If you want to save the output to a file, you can use either the --file argument, or redirect the output from STDOUT to a file (as in the example below). On most Linux systems, you can then use the tar command to extract the contents of the tarball (for example, for checking in to a Subversion repository).
