788CHAPTER 19: BACKING UP DEVICE CONFIGURATIONS

Figure 429 Device Restore Wizard - No Backups Found

If your target device is not a replacement for another device and there are no backup files associated with your target device, the Device Restore Wizard cannot continue. The Restore operation can only be used to apply a saved backup to either the device from which it originated or to a replacement for the device.

If you want to apply a saved configuration to a device which is neither the source of the backup nor a replacement for the source of the backup, then you should use the Device Setup Wizard. See “Device Setup Wizard” on page 792 for more details.

Specify Device Being Replaced Step

When you indicate in the No Backups Found step that the target device is a replacement for another device, the Specify Device Being Replaced step is shown. This step is only shown if there is at least one backup from another device with the same physical configuration as your target device.

You must select the device that has been replaced by your target device from the table, as shown in Figure 430.
