Backup and Restore Configuration
Choose this option to save the product configuration stored on the director to the
HAFM appliance hard disk, or to restore the product configuration from the
HAFM appliance. Only a single copy of the configuration is kept on the HAFM
appliance.
The purpose of the backup is primarily for single-CTP systems, such as the
director, where a backup is needed in order to restore a replacement CTP card.
You can also use this feature for a special purpose configuration or for temporary
testing of a configuration. You cannot modify the location and file name of the
saved configuration.
Note: You can only restore the configuration to a director with the same IP address.
Backup Procedure
Use the following procedure to backup your product configuration:
1. Choose Backup and Restore Configuration from the Maintenance menu
on the menu bar. The Backup and Restore Configuration dialog box displays,
as shown in Figure 64.
Figure 64: Backup and Restore Configuration dialog box
The Backup and Restore Configuration dialog box consists of a short
description of the features performed when you choose Backup or Restore.
2. Click Backup to save the current director configuration to the HAFM
appliance. The following is a list of configurations that are backed up to the
HAFM appliance:
— Identification data (director name, description, and location).
— Port configuration data (port names, blocked states, and extended distance
settings).
