Saving the Configuration to a Diskette
Digital strongly recommends that you save your configuration to a file on a diskette at
this point. In the event that your controller fails, you need a backup of your
configuration file in order to restore your original configuration on your new
controller.
You can use a formatted diskette or save the file to the diskette that you are using to
run the utilities.
To save the configuration, proceed as follows.
