backupPlanName string		Specifies a backup plan name
createBackupPlan boolean	Choices: no yes	Specifies if backup plan generation is enabled.
DN string		Sets the exact scope of the operation in form of a list of managed object Distinguished Names (DN) in the network. A single DN or a list of DNs can be given (comma separated list without spaces). Alternatively, if DN or a list of DNs is not given, working set (WS) or Maintenance Region (MR) must be provided as parameter to set the scope of operation.

Multiple MRs can be given (comma-separated list without spaces) The value of this parameter is searched through MR IDs under given MRC. If there is no match, then it is searched from all MR names. Alternatively, if MR ID or a list or MR IDs is not given, Distinguished Name (DN) or Working Set (WS) must be provided as parameter to set the scope of operation.
operation string / required	Choices: upload provision import export Provision_Mass_Modification	Supported operations allow user to upload actual configuration from the network, to import and provision prepared plans, or export reference or actual configuration for planning purposes.

opsName string		user specified operation name
planName string		Specifies a plan name.
