Backing up and restoring on compact flash
Note: SuperUsers and Administrators can restore an old configuration;
StandardUsers and RestrictedUsers cannot. See
page 319 for more about permissions.
If you want to restore a previous configuration to an entire cluster, you must
restore each node individually. Restoring the master node does not propagate to
the cluster. To re-add a node to the topology database after removing it, you
must do one of the following:
For a software node: Reinstall it.
■
See the Symantec Network Security Installation Guide for reinstalling a
software node.
For an appliance node: Unconfigure the initial configuration.
■
See the Symantec Network Security 7100 Series Implementation Guide for
unconfigure an appliance node.
Note: SuperUsers can delete software and appliance nodes from the cluster.
Administrators, StandardUsers, and RestrictedUsers can view them, but cannot
delete them. See
"User groups reference"
permissions.

Backing up on compact flash
On a 7100 Series node, SuperUsers can back up the node configuration onto a
compact flash (CF) card. Symantec Network Security automatically writes the
backup to the compact flash if the CF card is available as a mounted filesystem.
To mount the CF card, you must reboot the appliance after inserting the card
into the adaptor.
For more information about using the compact flash, see the Symantec Network
Security 7100 Series Implementation Guide.
To back up a configuration onto compact flash
1
In the Network Security console, click Admin > Node > Manage Backups.
2
In Select Node, choose a node from the pull-down list, and click OK.
