The following is an example of how to upload a configuration backup file (configdata) from the workstation to the switch, and then restore the configuration.

#> ftp symbolic_name or ip_address user: images

password: images ftp> bin

ftp> put configdata ftp> quit

McDATA4GbSAN #> admin start

McDATA4GbSAN (admin) #> config restore

The switch will be reset after restoring the configuration.

Please confirm (y/n): [n] y

Alarm Msg: [day month date time year][A1005.0021][SM][Configuration is being restored - this could take several minutes !]

Alarm Msg: [day month date time year][A1000.000A][SM][The switch will be reset in 3 seconds due to a config restore]

McDATA4GbSAN (admin) #>

Alarm Msg: [day month date time year][A1000.0005][SM][The switch is being reset]

Good bye.
