I have asked this question before.
It is stored in the Postgresql DB

echo 'select * from xi_options;' | psql nagiosxi nagiosxi | grep objectnotes

Your notes will be truncated if it has line feed. So modify the sql statement to strip off the \r.

Thank you raja, that's a good command to have around.

zaji, did this work out for you? As far as backups, those wouldn't be included in a snapshot the way notes from the CCM would be, but a full backup should include them as part of the Postgres dump.
