Restore known good script backup file to Alert

appliance from a remote host

If you are experiencing problems accessing the Alert web interface you may have a corrupt script file. Try

starting the alertd process from the command line as follows:

# /bin/alertd

If you get the error message “unsupported platform” you have a corrupt script file. The following

commands will allow you to restore a known good script backup file to your Alert appliance from a remote

host:

# scp username@remotehost:/home/username/alertbackup/script.backup \

/proc/flash/script

# reboot

# tftp -l /proc/flash/script -r script.backup -g tftp_server

# reboot

After the Alert appliance is allowed time to reboot you should be able to access its web interface.
