Group policy Management console allows easy backing up
and restoring of GPOs. But I think the backing up of
GPOs using GPMC can only be done manually.

Is there a way of automating the backing up of GPOs using
Group Policy Management console or any other utility?

Hi

GPMC has a script interface, so I would think that is possible.
 
yes its easy. creat a batch script with the following information

cscript BackupAllGPOs.wsf "D:\domain name GPO Backups" > GPOBak.log

the BackupAllGPOs.wsf can be found in the gpmc\scripts folder. run the
batch script as a scheduled task.
