Backup Restore
Use the WMS Backup and Restore facility to backup templates (configuration files) conveniently from
one location within WMS. Once saved, configurations can be restored to relevant supported devices.
The WMS backup and restore facility also compares backup configurations with current configurations
for specific devices. This comparison can serve as the criteria (if necessary) for restoring a backup
configuration file to the device originally submitting the backup file.
NOTE
During the back up and restore process, details and status of the operation can be reviewed within the
Administration - > Job Status screen.
CAUTION
WMS backs up configurations to: C:\SummitWM\WMS\backup\backup_data_time.data. If uninstalling WMS, ensure
this file is archived to a different location, as uninstalling WMS deletes this backup file.
To perform configuration backup and restore operations:
1 Select the Configuration tab from within the My Networks menu item.
2 Select Backup/Restore.
