6-4 CHAPTER 6: SAVING, RESTORING, AND RESETTING NONVOLATILE DATA
To restore the NV data:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
system nvData restore
You are prompted for information for restoring the NV data saved to a file.
Press [Return] at a prompt to use the value specified in brackets. Any entry
for IP address, file name, and user name becomes the new default.
2 Enter the IP address of the host where the NV data file resides.
3 Enter the NV data file path name.
4 Enter your user name on the host system.
5 Enter your password on the host system.
If the information is incorrect, or a connection could not be made with the
specified host, a message similar to the following is displayed:
User Tom access denied:
Error: Could not open ftp session
If a session is successfully opened, the system reads the header information,
compares the stored configuration to the current system configuration, and
proposes a method of restoration based on one of the restoration rules
described on page 6-3.
You are prompted to load the proposal.
CAUTION - Restoring nonvolatile data may leave the system
in an inconsistent state and therefore a reboot is
necessary after each restore.
Do you wish to continue? (y/n):
6 Enter y (yes) if you want to use the proposal. If you do not want to use the
proposal, enter
n (no).
If you enter
y, the system NV is restored as proposed.
7 At the end of a restore, press [Return] to reboot the system.
