Server User Manual

 To backup to the USB, enter a brief Description of the backup in the Local Configuration Backups
menu and select Save Backup.
 The Local Configuration Backup menu will display all the configuration backup files you have
stored onto the USB flash.
 To restore a backup from the USB simply select Restore on the particular backup you wish to
restore and click Apply.
After saving a local configuration backup, you may choose to use it as the alternate default
configuration. When the console server is reset to factory defaults, it will then load your alternate
default configuration instead of its factory settings:
 To set an alternate default configuration, check Load On Erase and click Apply.
Note Before selecting Load On Erase, make sure that you have tested your alternate default
configuration by clicking Restore.
If your alternate default configuration causes the console server to not boot, recover your unit to
factory settings using the following steps:
- If the configuration is stored on an external USB storage device, unplug the storage device
and reset to factory defaults as per section 11.1 of the user manual.
- If the configuration is stored on an internal USB storage device, reset it to factory defaults
using a specially prepared USB storage device:
o The USB storage device must be formatted with a Windows FAT32/VFAT file system
on the first partition or the entire disk; most USB thumb drives are already formatted
this way.
o The file system must have the volume label: OPG_DEFAULT.
o Insert this USB storage device into an external USB port on the console server and
reset to factory defaults as described in Section 11.1.
- After recovering your console server, make sure the problem configuration is no longer selected
for Load On Erase.
