The following configuration files can be backed up and restored between IPS systems operating system software version 5.4 or higher:

•

•

•

•

•

•

Input DFA profiles (for DFA systems only)

Output DFA profiles (for DFA systems only)

Input tray groups

Output tray groups

System configuration files

Media library files.

Note: Configuration files created with software versions lower than

5.4cannot be saved or restored to a system running release 5.4 or higher.

Note: DFA profiles can be backed up and restored between IPS systems with the same configuration and with operating system software version 5.1.8 or higher.

Profiles created with software versions lower than 5.1.8 cannot be saved or restored to a system running release 5.1.8 or higher.
