What is backed up?
The following data, contained in the <Install_Home>\Server, <Install_Home>\Client,
and <Install_Home>\Call Home directories, are backed up to disk:
NOTE: <Install_Home> refers to the directory where the HAFM application is installed.
• All log files.
• Zoning library (all zone sets and zone definitions). Note that zoning is configured through
HAFM.
• Call-home configuration (including phone numbers and dialing options).
• Configuration data.
NOTE: This data can also be saved through the Backup & Restore Configuration option on the
Element Manager Maintenance menu.
• Plans. Data is saved if the optional Planning feature is available through HAFM.
• License information
• User launch scripts.
• User defined sounds.
• All data exported through the Export option on the HAFM SAN menu.
NOTE: Firmware files are NOT backed up.
Backing up to a CD
The rack-mount HAFM appliance is backed up to a compact disk, rewritable (CD-RW). As long as
a CD-RW disk remains in the CD recorder drive of the HAFM appliance, critical information from
both the Element Manager and the HAFM are automatically backed up to the CD-RW disk when
the data directory contents change or when you reboot HAFM.
Restoring data from a CD
To restore data to HAFM, copy the three folders from the CD-RW (D:\Backup\) and paste them in
C:\Program Files\<Install_Home>. You will be asked if you want to overwrite the existing
files; click Yes.
Manual backup procedures
A full data backup occurs the first time that you configure any parameter on a new HAFM
appliance. See ”What is backed up?” on page 48 for a list of data backed up for a complete
backup.
