Thanks Marvin. Instead of scheduling could do it on demand? 

Say, everytime you type the write command, instead at a specific hour/time.

I haven't tried it, but you should be able to:

Create an EEM applet to have two actions - write mem and backup

Create a command-alias to replace "write" with the event manager applet ("event manager run <applet name>")

Marvin,

Just thought I would write a comment to thank you for your help not only on this one but several others.

It seems almost everytime I have a question and do a google search (which is quite a bit) you have the answer, nice work and thanks for the Help.

I can see how you are a Hall of Fame Master - is that the Highest Level ? Whatever the highest is Yoda, Sensei, Master of all things Security Related - you should be it :) 

Thanks again,

Mark

here's an actual verified/working config to auto backup the asa on a daily basis:

ASA5515X(config)# event manager applet backup-config
ASA5515X(config-applet)# event timer absolute time 11:45:00
ASA5515X(config-applet)# action 0 cli command "copy /noconfirm running-config tftp://172.27.0.1/asa-cfg.txt"
ASA5515X(config-applet)# output none

ASA5515X# sh event manager
event manager applet backup-config, hits 1, last 2018/04/25 11:45:00 last file none
event absolute 11:45:00, left 83816 secs, hits 1, last 2018/04/25 11:45:00
action 0 cli command "copy /noconfirm running-config tftp://172.27.0.1/asa-cfg.txt", hits 1, last 2018/04/25 11:45:00

hope that helps.

Here's an example using the "backup" command:

event manager applet backup-asa
 description Backup ASA upon saving config
 event syslog id 111004
 action 0 cli command "backup /noconfirm location tftp://192.168.1.20/configs/"
 output none
