Notes
-----

.. note::
   - SDK Methods used are - backup.Backup.get\_all\_n\_f\_s\_configurations - backup.Backup.get\_backup\_configuration
   - Paths used are - GET /dna/system/api/v1/backupNfsConfigurations - GET /dna/system/api/v1/backupConfiguration
   - Requires Cisco Catalyst Center version 3.1.3.0 or higher
   - Only supports gathered state for extracting existing configurations
   - NFS filtering requires both server\_ip and source\_path together
   - Backup storage filtering only supports server\_type parameter
   - Generated YAML file format is compatible with backup\_and\_restore\_workflow\_manager module
   - File path supports both absolute and relative paths
   - Default filename includes timestamp for uniqueness
   - NFS details correlation matches backup mount paths with NFS destination paths automatically
   - Empty configurations return success with idempotent behavior
   - Module does not modify Catalyst Center configuration
   - Does not support \ :literal:`check\_mode`\ 
   - The plugin runs on the control node and does not use any ansible connection plugins instead embedded connection manager from Cisco Catalyst Center SDK
   - The parameters starting with dnac\_ are used by the Cisco Catalyst Center Python SDK to establish the connection
