Data Export Wizard
If you have a SonicWALL UMA appliance, you can download and run the Data Export Wizard. The wizard helps you configure a Java-based client and a corresponding script that you can use to schedule recurring, automatic backups.
To download and use the wizard:

Type the file name into the Input dialog box, or accept the pre-populated name if editing an existing configuration script. Click OK.

The wizard saves the file in the .../auto_export/configs directory with ".ec" as the file name extension.

Click Done to exit the wizard.

You can now set up a scheduled task (in Windows) or a cron job (in Linux) to execute runTask.bat or runTask.sh to periodically download backup data from the UMA. The downloaded backup data is stored in the …/auto_export/export directory.
Windows command example:
C:\Program Files\auto_export\runTask.bat config_004010235FBE_archiv_report.ec
Linux command example:
/home/ac/auto_export\runTask.sh config_004010235FBE_archived_report.ec
Data is transferred from the UMA system to the target client that executes the export task whenever the schedule is triggered.
