Restoring a Switch

Restoring a switch loads the archived switch configuration parameters to the switch. The switch configuration must be archived before it can be restored. Furthermore, the switch archive must be compatible with the switch to be restored; that is, you cannot restore a SANbox2-8c switch with a SANbox2-16 archive. Refer to ”Archiving a Switch” on page 4-25for more information.

To restore a switch, do the following:

1.Log in to the fabric through the switch you want to restore. You cannot restore a switch over an ISL.

2.Open the Switch menu and select Restore to display the Restore dialog shown in Figure 4-12. The Restore dialog offers a Full Restore and a Selective Restore tab.

Figure 4-12. Restore Dialogs – Full and Selective

3.Enter the archive file name or browse for the file. This archive file must be one that was produced by the SANbox Manager Archive function. Configuration backup files created with the Config Backup command are not compatible with the SANbox Manager Restore function.
