Sun Microsystems 6800/4810/4800/3800 manual SchostnameSC restoreconfig -f ftp//hostname/path

Caution –The dumpconfig command is intended to be used as part of replacing a failed system controller. For instructions on how to use dumpconfig, see “To Use the dumpconfig Command to Save the Current Platform and Domain Configurations to a Server” in the chapter “System Power On and Setup” in the Sun Fire 6800/4810/4800/3800 Systems Platform Administration Manual. This command should have been executed when you set up the system.

This command requires that all domains be powered off with the setkeyswitch off command. The system controller automatically reboots when the configuration is restored. The date and time need to be set after the configuration has been restored and the system controller has been rebooted. You also need to activate all domains with setkeyswitch on, since this command restores all domains in the off keyswitch position.

Note –Check the configuration of the platform and the domains before activating any domains to ensure that the desired configuration has been restored. In the platform shell use showplatform, showboards, and showdate. In each domain shell use showdomain, showboards, and showdate.
