restore system config

Description Restores the system configuration so that it matches the last saved configuration.

The system configuration includes the Interface Manager card, interfaces, and

licensed feature configuration.

Before using this command, the system configuration must have been saved

using the save system config command. The save system config command

creates a file called IM_save_snapshot.zip, which is saved in the ftp

directory of the Interface Manager card and Command View TL save current

configuration action creates a file name

IM_save_snapshot_<serialnumber>.zip which is saved on the server

in a user picked location. With Interface Manager firmware i273 or lower

the Command view TL save configuration file has to be renamed

IM_save_snapshot before putting it in the ftp directory. With I274 and

above the file can be both names. It also works if the CVTL file has the date

inserted before the .zip. One of these configuration files must be present in

the ftp directory before running the restore system config command.

If the saved configuration file is not named IM_save_snapshot.zip, it

must be renamed before the FTP process.

After entering this command, you are prompted to input whether you are sure

you want to restore the system configuration.

CAUTION: This command causes reboots of all interfaces and all LTO4 and

later drives, causing backup operations to terminate, so ensure that there are

no backup operations in process when this command is executed.

CAUTION: In I240 and above you can restore the configuration for two

major revisions back. For example, I270 can restore configurations saved

with I260 and I250. Saving and restoring the configuration must be done

with the same version of the Interface Manager firmware for I232 and below.

For example, you cannot save the configuration with Interface Manager

firmware version I230, upgrade to version I231, and then restore the

configuration.
