Restoring a configuration from the repository

If you delete a fabric or switch from discovery, the configuration remains in the repository until you
delete it manually. Stored configurations are linked to the switch WWN; therefore, if the IP address
or switch name is changed and then rediscovered, the Switch Configuration Repository dialog box
displays the new switch name and IP address for the old configuration.
NOTE

The configuration is downloaded to the device. If necessary, the restoration process prompts
you to disable and reboot the device before the configuration begins. This lets you determine
whether the configuration backup should be performed immediately or at a later time.
If you confirm the restoration, the entire configuration is restored; you cannot perform selective
download for specific configuration sections.
