About Cisco Secure ACS System Restore
The ACS System Restore feature enables you to restore your system configuration
from backup files generated by the ACS Backup feature. This feature helps
minimize downtime if Cisco Secure ACS system information becomes corrupted
or is misconfigured.
The ACS System Restore feature only works with backup files generated by a
Cisco Secure ACS server running an identical release of Cisco Secure ACS,
including patch level.
Backup File Names and Locations
The ACS System Restore feature restores the Cisco Secure ACS user database
and Cisco Secure ACS Windows Registry information from a file that was created
by the ACS Backup feature. Cisco Secure ACS writes backup files only on the
local hard drive. You can restore from any backup file you select. For example,
you can restore from the latest backup file, or if you suspect that the latest backup
was incorrect, you can select an earlier backup file to restore from.
