Usage Guidelines Use the restore EXEC command to restore data on a disk and in flash memory to the factory default,
while preserving particular time-stamp evaluation data, or to roll back the configuration to the last
functional data and device configuration.
This command erases all existing content on the device; however, your network settings are preserved
and the device is accessible through a Telnet and Secure Shell (SSH) session after it reboots.
Backing up the Central Manager Database
Before you use the restore factory-default command on your primary WAAS Central Manager or
change over from the primary to a standby WAAS Central Manager, make sure that you back up the
WAAS Central Manager database and copy the backup file to a safe location that is separate from the
WAAS Central Manager. You must halt the operation of the WAAS Central Manager before you enter
the backup and restore commands.
Caution The restore command erases user-specified configuration information stored in the flash image and
removes data from a disk, user-defined disk partitions, and the entire Central Manager database.
User-defined disk partitions that are removed include the SYSFS, WAAS, and PRINTSPOOLFS
partitions. The configuration that is removed includes the starting configuration of the device.
factory-default Resets the device configuration and data to their manufactured default
status.
preserve (Optional) Preserves certain configurations and data on the device.
basic-config (Optional) Selects basic network configurations.
rollback Rolls back the configuration to the last functional software and device
configuration.
