Saving and restoring iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE controller configurations

Saving and restoring a configuration helps protect your work. You can also use a saved
configuration as a template for configuring other modules.
Persistent data consists of system settings, virtual port group settings, LUN mappings, discovered
FC targets, and discovered iSCSI initiators. To save a module’s configuration and persistent data:

1.

Generate a file (HP_StorageWorks_MEZ50_FRU.bin) containing the saved data (see page
2-12) , by entering the fru save CLI command.
This command stores the file locally on the module in an FTP directory.

2.

Transfer the saved data from the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module to a workstation by executing
an FTP utility on a workstation.

The following example shows an FTP transfer to get the saved module configuration data:

c:\> ftp 172.17.137.102
Connected to 172.17.137.102.
220 (none) FTP server (GNU inetutils 1.4.2) ready.

200 Type set to I.
ftp> get HP_StorageWorks_MEZ50_FRU.bin
200 PORT command successful.

221 Goodbye.

Restoring iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module configuration and persistent data

1.

Transfer the saved data from a workstation to the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module by executing
an FTP utility on the workstation.
The following example shows an FTP transfer to put previously saved module configuration
data on the module:

c:\> ftp 172.17.137.102
Connected to 172.17.137.102.
