The Local Configuration Backup menu will display all the configuration backup files you have stored onto the
USB flash.
To restore a backup from the USB simply select
Restore
on the particular backup you wish to restore and click
Apply.
After saving a local configuration backup, you may choose to use it as the alternate default configuration. When the
console server
is reset to factory defaults, it will then load your alternate default configuration instead of its factory
settings:
To set an alternate default configuration, check
Load On Erase
and click
Apply.
Note
Before selecting
Load On Erase
, make sure that you have tested your alternate default configuration by clicking
Restore.
If your alternate default configuration causes the
console server
to not boot, recover your unit to factory settings
using the following steps:
-
If the configuration is stored on an external USB storage device, unplug the storage device and reset to
factory defaults as per section 11.1 of the user manual.
-
If the configuration is stored on an internal USB storage device, reset it to factory defaults using a specially
prepared USB storage device:
o
The USB storage device must be formatted with a Windows FAT32/VFAT file system on the first
partition or the entire disk; most USB thumb drives are already formatted this way.
o
The file system must have the volume label: OPG_DEFAULT.
o
Insert this USB storage device into an external USB port on the
console server
and reset to factory
defaults as described in Section 11.1.
- After recovering your
console server
, make sure the problem configuration is no longer selected for Load On
Erase.
