and I/E station magazines to each partition. If the library’s current
configuration becomes lost or unstable, you can use the LMC to apply
the locally or remotely saved configuration image, which eliminates the
need to reconfigure the entire library to bring it back to its original
state.
Caution: You cannot apply an older firmware configuration to a new
firmware library (i.e., i11.1.1 to i11.2.3).
The Save and Restore Library Configuration dialog box enables you
to:
• Save a library’s configuration settings as a remotely or locally stored
image
• Restore, revert, or rescue the library by applying a remotely or
locally stored image of a library’s configuration settings.
Caution: As a result of restore, rescue, or revert operations, the
library shuts down. You must have physical access to
the library to bring the library back up. If you are
performing a restore, rescue, or revert operation using
remote access, the library will remain shut down until
the library is directly powered back on.
Types of Configuration Image Files
There are three types of configuration images that correspond to the
Restore
,
Rescue
, and

any time you use the
Save
command. You might restore the library’s
configuration, for example, if the library’s locally saved
configuration is lost because the Management Control Blade (MCB)
is replaced. Because of the image's remote location, the
Save
and
Restore
commands are available only through the remote client.
• The rescue image is stored locally on the library’s file system and is
created any time you use the
Save Rescue
command. You might
rescue the library’s configuration, for example, if the library
becomes unstable due to a configuration change and you want to
roll back the library’s configuration settings to a previous state. The
