Restoring network settings after using the Vertical Wave System Recovery
Disk
In the event that you need to use the Vertical Wave System Recovery Disk that came with your
system, you will need to restore your customized settings using the System Backup/Restore
applet with a previously created backup file. In some cases, you may need to manually
reconfigure your network settings and adapter information.
After you have restored your settings using the System Backup/Restore applet (see “Restoring
your system configuration” on page 23-1), a log is displayed in the applet that provides
information about the Restore action. If Wave could not restore your network adapter
information successfully, the log will include the following error message:
Error: Cannot Restore Network Adapters
If the error message does not appear in the log, then Wave successfully completed the restore
operation and you do not need to manually reconfigure your network settings.
To restore your network settings
1 Print or write down the network settings information in the log file.
The information in the log that you will need looks like this, but has values specific to your
Wave Server.
