While using DataMiner backup and restore functionality, I notice that the SoftLaunchOptions.xml file isn't part of the backup.
Is this the expected behavior?

Yes, Task reference is DCP157295.
I think this is a software issue, some soft-launch options cause data to be stored differently (e.g. ElasticTicketing, CassandraCluster) or can have a big impact on the flow of your DMS (e.g. AlarmSquashing, APIDeployment) which you would want to retain during a backup restore.

Hi Bruno,
Do you know if there was an SW task created for this and if this was already resolved?
