Restoring Configuration Settings from a File

You can automatically restore/configure your entire storage subsystem from a
previously saved configuration file. Client can configure your subsystem from
a file only if the file corresponds to your subsystem’s hardware configuration.
Make sure that the file you select corresponds to your subsystem’s hardware
configuration.

CAUTION: Make sure you are completely aware of the configuration information
contained in the configuration file you choose. If you choose a file that is not
compatible with the current configuration of the data on your devices, you put
your data at risk.

1.

From the Storage menu select Controller, Configuration, and Restore.

2.

When the Restore Configuration dialog box displays (Figure 3– 38),
specify the location (path) and file name in the text box, then click the
Restore button. The configuration settings as defined in the file,
including caches, LUNS, host port and stripe size will be restored.

original hardware and connections have been replaced, or if the original
configuration settings were not saved before implementing the new changes.

Printing a Configuration File

To print a configuration file, select Controller from the Storage menu, then
