4.5.6.1. Saving and Loading System Configurations

It’s a good idea to save your system configuration in case the Big
Disk Network needs to be reformatted or reset. You can then reload
the configuration so that your settings, shares, groups and users are
not lost.

IMPORTANT INFO:

Share content (files) is not saved in a con-

figuration file.

To save the current configuration:

1. Click on System and then Maintenance.

2. Click the Save configuration button (

Fig. 63

).

Internet Explorer users: The XML defining the configuration will
open in the browser window. To save the configuration, select File
> Save as… In the Save as type menu in the Save As dialog, select
XML Files (*.xml) and choose a location to save the file.

Firefox and Safari users: Your browser will save the file to the
browser’s default download location. The configuration file is an
XML file.

IMPORTANT INFO:

Do not save configuration files on the Big

Disk Network alone. If data loss occurs, the configuration file may
also be lost.

To load a saved configuration:

1. Click on System and then Maintenance.

2. Click the Load Configuration button (

Fig. 64

).

3. Click Browse… and select a configuration file from your com-

puter.

4. Click Apply.
