Backing up and restoring Hub configuration data
Dart RTLS lets you back up or restore Hub configuration settings. It preserves all configuration
settings, including Receiver and reference tag locations, virtual group settings, and user maps.
This feature is useful for preserving data, moving configuration settings from one Hub to
another, moving configuration settings to/from System Builder, and backing up settings on the
Hub while evaluating alternative settings.
To back up or restore Hub configuration data:
1 Start Hub Administration and Management application, click Administration.
2 In the Administration view, on the Backup/Restore tab, do one of the following:
 Backup the hub configuration: Under Backup hub configuration to a file on your PC,
from the Backup type list, select Dart Hub Configuration or System Builder
Configuration; then click Backup.
You can back up the hub configuration in two different formats: Dart hub native format
(by selecting Dart Hub Configuration) or System Builder format (by selecting System
Builder Configuration). Dart hub native format is mainly for backing up hub settings for
transferring to another hub; System Builder format is used for transferring the hub
configuration back to System Builder for maintenance.
 Restore the hub configuration: Under Restore hub configuration from a file on your
PC, from the Restore type list, select Dart Hub Configuration or System Builder
Configuration; then click Restore. You can restore configuration settings from a
previously saved hub configuration, a configuration of a different hub, or a hub
configuration saved from System Builder.
