It looks like it is /mroot/etc/backups/config/ (at least on my 8.3.1/8.3.2 clusters) and it doesn't look like you can get to that directory from the spi interface (not sure if you can change that)
in theory, you should be able to pull the files via powershell: Connect-NcController <cluster> $config = Get-NcConfigBackup $filename = $config[0].BackupName $node = $config[0].Node $filesize = (Get-NcFile -Path /vol/vol0/etc/backups/config/$filename -VserverContext $node).filesize
$offset = 0 while($offset -le $filesize) { $backupfile += Read-NcFile -Path "/vol/vol0/etc/backups/config/$filename" -VserverContext $node -raw -Length 1MB -Offset $offset $offset += 1MB } [io.file]::WriteAllBytes($filename,$backupfile)
And I say in theory, because I got it to work once, but every time I've run it since then, I get "no such file or directory" errors so YMMV

It's in /mroot/etc/cluster_config/backups I believe.

A little trick I do....
I suspect you know some part of the name of the file...even the extension...7z.
log into the systemshell as diag user, cd /mroot find . -name "*7z*" -print
let it run....you should get your answer. When you find it, you may very well be able to access wia the web interface and the spi. https://ip.of.cluster/spi

I see how/where I would set up the uploading of the backup files to an outside destination but only via FTP or to a writeable (put-ready) http destination.
Where do those files actually sit on the cluster? Anywhere that I can reach via NFS or CIFS or any other way, like through the SPI web interface?
Hope to hear from you,
Randy
