Performing a configuration save

A configuration save operation can be done at any time using the following process:
1.

Log into the StoreOnce CLI using any IP address that can access the appliance. Use a login
account with Admin privileges.

2.

Run the command:

config save devices

This command will complete immediately and return to the prompt, the configuration settings
will be created in the background.

3.

Run the command:

config show list

Check that the configuration file has been created; it will only appear in the list once the
creation process is complete.

4.

To retrieve the configuration file from the appliance, SFTP into the appliance using an SFTP
client and a login account of an appliance administrator.

5.

From the /config directory copy the configuration zip file and associated text file to a local
PC.

Prerequisites for a configuration restore

Before restoring the configuration verify that:

All hardware is physically repaired or replaced with no defects (such as failed disks).

There are no configured devices (VTL, NAS or Catalyst devices).

All settings in the configuration text file are manually restored.

Restoring from the configuration zip file

To restore only StoreOnce device settings (VTL, NAS, Catalyst, Replication and Housekeeping),
apply the configuration zip file as follows:
1.

The saved configuration zip file is in the config folder on the appliance.

NOTE:

This assumes that the appliance was not repaired or replaced; no QR was necessary

so the configuration file is still on the system. It is advisable to use the config show list
command to check for the name of the latest zip file.

2.

Run the StoreOnce CLI command:

config restore devices
