Configuring Backup and Restore
Configuring Backup and Restore
CAUTION
You must backup the SAN Router configuration periodically so
that you can restore the configuration in the event of a hardware
failure or problems because of new configuration/software version.
The backup function copies all current settings, including zoning,
configured on the SAN Router to the TFTP server. The restore copies
the configuration from the TFTP server to the SAN Router. The
restored configuration takes effect only after you reset the SAN
Router.
Back up and restore zone set configurations for the mSAN using the
Load Zone Set and Save Zone Set options under File menu in the
SANvergence Manager mSAN Configuration window. The Save option
saves all SNMP transactions needed to recreate the current zone
configuration. The file also contains all necessary information for
SNMP transactions including IP addresses and matching passwords
(community strings) in encrypted form.
Backup
To back up the SAN Router configuration, follow these instructions:
1. Choose File>Configuration>Backup to display the Backup
Configuration dialog box (
Figure 7-4).
