To upload a backup file
1Go to Maintenance > Backup and Restore.

5Click Close.
The system asks if you want to restore now from the backup file you just

Later. When you’re ready to restore, use the procedure that follows this
one.

the next procedure, and click Now. When asked to confirm, click Yes.
A dialog box informs you when all files have been restored.
8Click OK.
The system logs you out and the server reboots (typically, this takes about
five minutes). After it comes back up, in a two-server cluster, the second
server syncs to it, thus being restored to the same state. Depending on the

take effect.
When done, both servers’ LCDs display DMA Clustered.
