Backing up data
If you keep a read/writable (CD-RW) disk in the CD recorder drive of the appliance, critical data
from the HAFM application is automatically backed up to the CD-RW disk when the data directory
content changes or when you restart the HAFM application.
Restoring data
Allow 45 minutes after making a configuration change before restoring data from the backup files.
This ensures that all your changes are included in the backed up files. It is possible that, in a
disaster recovery situation, configuration changes made less than 45 minutes before appliance loss
could be missing from the backup.
To restore data to the appliance platforms, perform the following procedure:
1. Reinstall the application, if necessary.
