Restoring the configurations

The configuration consists of two parts:
1. A set of instructions in the form of a text file, devconfig<timestamp>.txt, for the user
to manually restore some of the network and device management configuration settings that

2. A zip file, devconfig<timestamp>.zip, containing StoreOnce device configuration

See the HP StoreOnce Backup system user guide for more information about saving and restoring
configurations.

Saving the encryption keystore

Data at Rest and Data in flight encryption use encryption keys. Encryption keys are written to a
key store which should be backed up and saved securely offsite in case the original key store is
corrupted. However, be sure to keep only the latest version of the key store.
The StoreOnce CLI command config save keystore that backs up the key store, also encrypts
it, ensuring that it can only be decrypted by the HP StoreOnce backup system, should you need
to restore it.
NOTE: Data at rest and Data in flight encryption are two of three security features that can be
applied using the Security license (which must be purchased and applied in the normal way).
