Saving or restoring a configuration

You may save the configuration of the FastStream you are currently using, restore the configuration from a previously-saved configuration for that FastStream, or clone a configuration from another ATTO FastStream using the Save/Restore feature.

Note

It is best practice to save a copy of your configuration settings to a file to easily replace a unit or to set up additional controllers.

1Follow steps 1-2 in Creating a unique name for your FastStream above.

2Click on the FastStream SC arrow.

3Click on the System Configuration Save/Restore button.

4Click on Next.

5Choose the option you wish to use.

CAUTION

If you perform a full restore on multiple FastStream storage controllers on the same SAN, you will have World Wide Name conflicts. Use a partial restore to keep unique WWNs on your SAN.

6Click on Commit.

7A warning box appears. If you wish to continue with the changes you have chosen and restart your FastStream, select Yes. If you do not wish to make the changes, select No.
