Chapter 14. Administration
Warning
Note that this restore procedure only restores user data and configuration information. It does not restore system files. If
you experienced a serious system crash, you should first re-install the SME Server V5 with ServiceLink software and
then perform a restore from tape.

14.3. Reinstallation Disk
Using this section of the server manager, you can create a reinstallation diskette which will aid in the recovery process in the unlikely
event that you encounter a system failure and are required to reinstall the software. The reinstallation diskette will record system and
network configuration data for your current system so that you will not need to re-enter that information when you reinstall.
Warning
Each time you alter your system configuration, you MUST make a new reinstallation disk (or overwrite your old one).
Otherwise, your existing reinstallation disk will not contain your updated configuration data - which means that after
reinstalling the software, you will not automatically see your most recent data.
Note: Be aware that when you are performing this task, the diskette must be in the server diskette drive, NOT the diskette drive of
your local desktop computer.
