Restoring a Host Group
Click Restore Group to return the configuration settings for the currently selected host group to those in
use when the dialog box was opened.
Restoring all Host Groups
Click Restore All Groups to return the entire host group configuration to the state that existed when the
dialog was opened. All host group assignments are returned to their original configuration. Any newly
added host groups yet to be committed are removed, and any host groups that were deleted are
restored.
Exporting Host Grouping Configurations
To export the host grouping configuration to a remote host, you must copy the various host group
configuration files from the host on which the configuration was created to the remote host. Copy the
entire contents of the config/hostgroups subdirectory under the OneCommand installation directory to
the equivalent location on the remote system. The host groups configuration file locations for the
supported platforms are:
Windows: InstallationDriveLetter:\Program Files\Emulex\Util\Config\hostgroups
Windows Itanium64: InstallationDriveLetter:\Program Files (x86)\Emulex\Util\Config\hostgroups
Linux: /usr/sbin/ocmanager/config/hostgroups
Solaris: /opt/ELXocm/config/hostgroups
Note: If the currently selected group was created during the current configuration session,
clicking Restore Group deletes the new group name.
