6-6 Saving a Storage Configuration to Disk
You can save an existing controller configuration to a file so you can apply it to
another controller. To save a configuration file, follow these steps:
1. Select a controller icon in the left panel of the MegaRAID Storage Manager
window.
2. On the menu bar, select Operations -> Advanced Operations -> Configuration
-> Save Configuration.
The Save dialog box appears.
3. In the Save dialog box, type a name for the configuration file, or accept the default
name (hostname.cfg).
4. Click Save to save the configuration file.
6-7 Clearing a Storage Configuration from a Controller
You can use the Add New Configuration option to add a new storage configuration
while keeping the existing configuration. Alternatively, you can clear the existing
storage configuration from a controller and then create a totally new configuration
or load a previously saved configurationfile.
Caution: Before you clear a configuration, be sure to save any data that you
want to keep. Clearing a configuration deletes all data from the disks of the
existing configuration. Be sure that the operating system is not installed on this
configuration.
To clear a configuration from a controller, follow these steps:
1. Select a controller icon in the left panel of the MegaRAID Storage Manager
window.
2. On the menu bar, select Operations -> Advanced Operations -> Configuration ->
Clear Configuration. A Warning message appears.
3. Click Yes to clear the configuration or No to cancel the operation.
