Creating a Configuration Backup Using FTP
Using an FTP client of your choice, connect into the SCON through the FET interface (interface
must be configured for network access of course) using the User ID of ‘system’, and give the
configured Supervisor Password, for your password. Next copy off the following two files:
FIG$DATA.LOA and DOD$CFG.LOA. Make sure that you transfer the files in binary mode
(not text mode). These files make up and are equivalent to the Configuration Data Object. In
order to read them into a SCON through the floppy drive, you must put them on a System 1
disk or at least a floppy with the volume label of ‘@@D@@@@@174’.
Creating a Configuration Backup Using eManager
If you have a copy of the Visara management software, eManager, you can make a backup of
the configuration of your LINCS platform. Select the node corresponding to the LINCS
platform that you wish to backup, right-mouse-click to bring up the menu, and select ‘Backups/
Create Backup’. Please reference the eManager documentation for more details on this
procedure.
