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
cannot be automatically restored.
2.
A zip file, devconfig<timestamp>.zip, containing StoreOnce device configuration
settings that automatically restore configuration settings that have been created for StoreOnce
VTL, NAS, Catalyst, Replication and housekeeping functions.
IMPORTANT:
carried out before the automatic restore.
See the HP StoreOnce Backup system user guide for more information about saving and restoring

Saving encryption keystore

Data at rest encryption is one of two security features that can be applied using the Security license
(which must be purchased and applied in the normal way).
When enabled, the Data at Rest Encryption security feature protects data at rest on stolen, discarded
or replaced disk from forensic attack. Data encryption is only available on Catalyst and VTL devices.
It is important to understand the following information about using this feature:
When you create a new store or library (VTL or Catalyst), you have the option to enable
encryption if the security features license has already been applied. Once enabled, encryption
will automatically be performed on the data before it is written to disk. Encryption cannot be
disabled once it has been set for a library or Catalyst store.
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.
