2. Click Backup to save the current director configuration to the HP EFC server. The
following is a list of configurations that are backed up to the HP EFC server:
– Identification data (director name, description, and location).
– Port configuration data (port names, blocked states, and extended distance
settings).
– Operating parameters (BB_Credit, E_D_TOV, R_A_TOV, director priority, and
preferred domain ID).
– SNMP configuration (trap recipients, community names, and write authorizations).
– Zoning configuration (active zone set and default zone state).
A backup is immediately attempted when you click the Backup button on this dialog
box. A dialog box displays to confirm that the backup to the server is complete. If the
backup fails, a dialog box displays to inform you that the backup to the server failed.
3. Set the director to offline before performing the restore function. If you select Restore
and the director is online, a message dialog displays requesting that you turn the
director offline. No action takes place when you close the dialog box. For instructions
on setting the director offline or online, refer to Set Online State on page 168.
4. Click Restore on the Backup and Restore Configuration dialog box to copy the backed
up configuration to the nonvolatile random access memory (NV-RAM) on the director.
If the director is already offline and you click Restore, a confirmation dialog box
displays indicating that the restore will overwrite any existing configuration already on
the director and it displays the date of the restored backup.
Note The restore operation initiates an IPL.
The Export Configuration Report function accessed through the Configure icon on the
navigation control panel is an ASCII file of the backup performed in this section.
