the bottom that lets you navigate between adjacent pairs of such files (1 and 2, 2 and 3, 3 and

You can use the browser’s “Find” function (typically initiated by Ctrl+F) to locate text within these views.
Backup / Restore —Select these to backup or restore a configuration file. See How to: Backup
Configurations on page 225 or Restore Configurations on page 227 for step-by-step
instructions.
Deploy —Select this option to deploy an OS Image (firmware). See Deploy Firmware on page 238
for more.
NOTE:
Some devices, including the Dell Force10 C-Series and E-Series, will allow then drop telnet connections
during deployment or file restoration when you select restart as part of the process. This can take from
six to eight minutes, though it can take as long as fifteen minutes for a fully populated chassis. During
that time, you can pint the device; however, Dell OpenManage Network Manager cannot log in to the
device until the reboot is complete.
Restoring configurations to Dell Force 10 devices may produce errors when individual
commands already exist in the running config and cannot be overwritten. Dell OpenManage
Network Manager ignores such errors and reports success by default since the errors indicate a
command was not applied, not that restoration was unsuccessful. Best practice is to restore to
startup config to avoid these errors, especially when scheduling backup or backing up a group
on such devices.
Export / Import —Export lets you save a local copy of the selected config file. Import opens a
screen that lets you select a locally-accessible file to store, view, compare and deploy.
Tip
You can see configuration files in the
Latest Configurations
portion of the Details screen for a device or in
the Configuration Files or Top Configuration Backups portlets.
How To:
Backup Configurations
Dell OpenManage Network Manager simplifies backing up devices so you always have their
configuration files, even if the one on the device becomes corrupted or out-of-date.
Tip
You can back up several devices at once for what amounts to a “group operation.” Select more than one
device by Ctrl+clicking in the expanded portlet, then right-click as outlined below. You must expand
portlets to multi-select.
