System Maintenance
Caution: Restarting an Access Control Server or Integrated Access Manager will log off all clients on all
Access Controllers. If possible, you should restart your system during a time when few clients are
actively connected to the system.
» To restart your system using the Alternate software version, click Restart to Alternate under the
Software Setup tab.
A confirmation/warning page appears. Depending on the relation of the Alternate Version to the
currently installed version, a number of possible warnings may appear.
Figure 8-6 is an example of one such warning.

Backing Up and Restoring the System Configuration
You should create backup files of your 700wl Series system often to ensure a relatively painless recovery
from any data loss. You should always create a backup prior to upgrading your software, as described in
“Updating the System Software” on page 8-2, or if you are restoring to factory defaults, as described in
“Resetting to Factory Default Settings” on page 8-21.
Note: The Backup function performed from your Access Control Server backs up the configuration for
your entire 700wl Series system, including all Access Controllers associated with the Access Control
Server.
HP recommends that you create data backups on a regular basis. If you make significant changes to the
Rights configuration, back up these changes.
Creating and saving a backup image is a two-step process:
First, create the backup image. This image is created on the 700wl Series system itself, and overwrites
the previously created backup image.
Second, save the backup image to a file on your local system. This is the file you can use if you ever
need to restore your backup configuration.
