Task 20: Back Up Configuration Data
Follow the procedures in this section to backup server configuration
data and create a base restore CD.
Critical configuration data for EFCM is stored on the management
server hard drive in the following directories:
• C:\Program Files\EFCM 8.7\CallHome
• C:\Program Files\EFCM 8.7\Client
• C:\Program Files\EFCM 8.7\Server.
The server is configured to automatically mirror the contents of these
directories to the CD-RW drive anytime directory contents change or
the server is rebooted. The directories contain all SAN management
configuration data, log files, firmware versions, call-home and other
configuration data; and are used to restore the server operating
environment in case of hard drive failure.
The server does not back up Windows operating system data, such as
user names, passwords, date and time, and network information.
This information was recorded while performing installation tasks,
and verified while performing Task 14: Record or Verify Server Restore
Information.
To back up server configuration data and create a base restore CD:
1. Insert a blank rewritable CD into the CD-RW drive and format
the CD:
a. Locate the InCD icon (1) at the right side of the task bar at the
Windows desktop (Figure 2-35). The icon is indicated by a red
down arrow.

b. Right-click the icon and select Format (F). The first window of
the InCD wizard appears.
