When might a Factory Reset be required

A factory reset may be required in the following scenarios:
•
Reset the IP address to default
•
Reset the Predix Machine Web Console username or password to default
•
There is a desire to re-enroll the Field Agent in EdgeManager.
•
There is a desire to restore the Predix Machine installation to the factory image.
•
The "ON" or "FA OK" LED does not turn solid after five minutes on boot up indicating Predix Machine failed to run.
Since the factory reset operation deletes the existing Predix Machine content and restores Predix Machine to a pristine copy,
any custom configuration or application modifications will be lost. It is highly recommended that production configuration
and application modifications be stored in the EdgeManager Repository so they can be easily re-deployed after a factory
reset.
