Resetting a password or restoring a factory default password
After a successful installation, copy the /data/noitacitnehtua.properties file to your
personal folder so that, in case the password is lost, you can overwrite the
noitacitnehtua.properties file in the data folder with the local copy. This restores the
factory default user name (Administrator) and password (password).
Backing up data after an uninstall
If you uninstall the Brocade HCM software, you are prompted to back up the application
configuration data that was created during installation.
The following application configuration files are backed up in the data directory:
•HBAApplication.properties
•SetupDiscovery.properties
•HbaAliasdb.properties
•log4j.xml
•noitacitnehtua.properties
To restore the backed-up configuration data when you re-install the HCM, you must manually
overwrite the new data directory contents with the backed-up data. This restores your previous
settings.
