Using The System Viewer Utility 99

Enter a backup file passphrase. This is used to lock the encrypted portions

of the backup file. For a successful backup operation, the backup file

passphrase has to be in a specific format:

– the passphrase must contain a minimum of 8 characters.

– the passphrase must contain the following combination of characters

— at least 1 title case character, at least 1 lower case character, at least

1 special character, and at least one numeric character.

If the Export File location is a network share, you have to specify the

backup file prefix. This prefix must be unique for a system or a collection.

The backup file is appended with the hostname of the system and saved in

the following format:

. For example, if the prefix

you specify is ABC123, and the hostname of the system is ABCDEFG, the

backup file is saved as ABC123-ABCDEFG.

link to view any previously created

backup files prefixes.

NOTE: If you have specified a file name that is the same as an earlier backup

file, the utility prompts you to specify a different file name to avoid overwriting

an existing file. If the same file name prefix is given at the System Level and

also at the Collection Level, for a same share location, it is overwritten without

a prompt.

Importing The System Profile

This feature enables you to import the backup of the firmware and

configuration of a system, and restore it to the same system where the backup

was taken from.

You can use this feature only if you have taken a backup image of the system

profile before.

NOTE: If you replace the system board of the system, make sure you re-install the

hardware back in the same location. For example, install the NIC PCI card in the

same PCI slot that you used during backup.
