Manage Configuration Data

The product manager application provides maintenance options to back up, restore, or reset the configuration file stored in nonvolatile random-access memory (NV-RAM) on the switch CTP card. Configuration data in the file include:

•Identification data (switch name, description, and location).

•Port configuration data (port names, blocked states, and port validation, auto-LIP, and LIN alert configurations).

•Operating parameters (loop mode, error detect time out value (E_D_TOV), resource allocation time out value (R_A_TOV), and preferred domain ID).

•Simple network management protocol (SNMP) configuration information, including trap recipients, community names, and write authorizations.

•Zoning configuration information, including the active zone set and default zone state.

NOTE: The switch must be set offline prior to restoring or resetting the configuration file.

Back Up the Configuration

NOTE: The ability to back up configuration data may not exist if the user has a customer-supplied server platform for the HAFM application. The server platform just have Iomega® QuikSync and a Zip drive.

To back up the switch configuration file to the HAFM server (c:\HafmData):

1.At the HAFM server, open the HAFM application. The Product View displays.

2.Select the icon representing the switch for which a configuration file is to be backed up. The Hardware View for the selected switch displays.

3.At the navigation control panel, select Backup & Restore Configuration from the Maintenance menu. The Backup and Restore Configuration dialog box displays.
