Local Backup Disk
From version v1.0a onwards, a default 20MB “Backup Disk” is partitioned from the onboard 128MB flash
memory.
Local Backup Disk Default size is 20MB
For best practice of PDA deployment, system administrators should create a snapshot backup image and store
it locally for each PDA every time when configurations are changed. In case of system recovery, end users
could restore from this local backup image very quickly and effortlessly without calling technical support. This
helps realize zero support of PDA and significantly cut support cost. To end users, this self-service recovery
would minimize interruption to PDA operations.
WF28 is specially designed not to erase any files in local backup size if Clean Reset is performed. This is to
ensure system administrators still have a chance to retrieve the last known good backup image.
Missing Backup Disk
If local backup disk is missing, goto Start > Settings > Control Panel > Storage Manager
Select “SMBAK FLASH Backup”
Press “Dismount” and then “Format”
Press Yes to confirm to format the backup disk
Wait until format completes
