Maintenance
This chapter describes the daily maintenance of the server and the precautions to follow when relocating or storing the
server.
MAKING BACKUP COPIES
We recommend you make backup copies of your valuable data stored in the hard disk drives of the server on a regular
basis. For information on the backup storage devices suitable for the server and the backup tools, consult with your
service representative.
When you have changed the hardware configuration or BIOS configuration, select "System Information Management"
and then "Save" of the Off-line Maintenance Utility to make a backup copy of the system information.
Also make a backup copy of the RAID System configuration data if your system is in a RAID System configuration.
When your hard disk drives have been auto-rebuilt due to a failure, we recommend make a backup copy of the
configuration data. To make a backup copy of the configuration data, use the configuration utility that is resident in the
FLASH memory on the optional RAID controller. Refer to the manual supplied with the board.
