Hi @Danny,

Export and delete old snapshots:
> set snapshot expor<snapshot name> path <path> name <snapshot name>
--> now download the snapshot file via ssh or winscp
> delete snapshot <snapshot name>

You can backup or create snapshots on  the MHO's like a clasic appliance. I had tested this in the lab.
If the backup partition is too small for an R81.10 snapshot, then only TAC will help.

Create snapshot:
> add snapshot <snapshot name>
> set snapshot expor<snapshot name> path <path> name <snapshot name>
--> now download the snapshot file via ssh or winscp

Restore snapshot:
--> now upload the snapshot file via ssh or winscp
> set snapshot import <snapshot name> path <path> name <snapshot name>
> set snapshot rever<snapshot name>

Alternatively, the following way should also be possible. But it is by far not as good as a snapshot.
If the MHO GAIA version does not change, the following files are needed to backup and restore the MHO:

Backup:
/etc/sgdb.json
/etc/maestro.json
/etc/maestro_full.json
/etc/smodb.json

Restore:
1) Don’t plug any appliance yet
2) Install MHO with old GAIA version
3) Copy all the following files from the damaged MHO backup (files see above)
4) # orchd restart
5) Plug all the appliances exactly to the same ports
