Performing A Configuration Restore - HP StoreOnce 4700 Service And Maintenance Manual

4. After installation completes, you will be prompted to remove the USB stick and reboot. To reboot the
system, press a key.
5. During the reboot process, the system will perform an install process and return to the login prompt.
During this sequence, you may need to answer questions presented on the console screen.

Performing a configuration restore

This process is normally carried out after a quick restore (QR) or if a replacement appliance has been
received. It restores the appliance to the same state as it was when the configuration file was created. It
is important that there are no configured backup target devices on the appliance.
IMPORTANT: During this process, you may be prompted to provide the Cluster ID. The Cluster ID
is the same as the System ID that can be found on the Device Management page of the StoreOnce
Management Console. Its value is assigned in the factory set up process and is a 12–character
string in the format HP<SerialNumber of Appliance>.
Prerequisites
This process requires the latest configuration files that should have been saved and copied locally to the
local system. You will require the following files:
•
<config_filename>.zip
•
<config_filename>.txt
• <keystore_filename>.kms (if you have installed the Security Pack license and configured Data at
Rest Encryption on any VTL libraries, NAS shares, or Catalyst stores)
Procedure
1. Check the Cluster ID against the value shown in the configuration text file,
<config_filename>.txt, using the StoreOnce CLI command:
system show config
2. If necessary reset the Cluster ID of the cluster to the ID of the original appliance, the cluster ID is
shown in the configuration text file, run the command:
system set cluster <cluster_id>
This step may not be necessary if there has been no replacement hardware or if the serial number of
the original appliance has been copied to the BIOS settings of the replacement appliance.
IMPORTANT: You can only restore the configuration file to an appliance that has the same
cluster ID as the one from which the configuration was taken.
3. Using the latest <config_filename>.txt file, manually apply all of the settings within this
configuration text file using the StoreOnce CLI commands and instructions exactly as shown. This will
ensure that the customer configuration is restored to its previous configuration. It is important that this
is done manually before attempting to restore the device settings automatically.
NOTE: If the product has additional storage connected, ensure that Capacity Upgrade Kit licenses are
applied.
