Restoring Data

Backing up data takes some time. Wait about 45 minutes after making a
configuration change before restoring from the backup files to ensure that all your
changes are included in the backed up files. To restore data to the appliance
platforms, follow these instructions:

1. Reinstall the application, if necessary.

2. To restore data to the application, copy the three folders from the CD-RW

disk (

X:\Backup\

directory) and paste them in

C:\Program

Files\

directory. You are asked if you want to

overwrite the existing files; click Yes.

3. On the HAFM appliance, open the HAFM application.

4. Choose SAN > Import. The Import dialog box displays, as shown in

Figure 41

.

5. Choose SAN File (zip) from the Import From drop-down list.

6. Click Browse. The Browse dialog box displays.

Note:

Imported data replaces the corresponding data on the appliance, including log

entries. If you want to keep the data on the appliance, perform an export before

importing the new data. See “

Exporting Data

” on page 89 for instructions.

7. Select the file from the directory below and click Open.

\Server\Data\Backup\bkp(date and
time)\bkp(date and time).zip

8. Click OK on the Import dialog box. A message displays stating that imported

data replaces corresponding data on the appliance.

9. If you are sure you want to replace the data on the appliance, click OK. The

client is logged out and the HAFM 8 Log In dialog box displays. For
