Restoring a configuration from the repository
If you delete a fabric or switch from discovery, the configuration remains in the repository until you
delete it manually. Stored configurations are linked to the switch WWN; therefore, if the IP address
or switch name is changed and then rediscovered, the Configuration File Manager dialog box
displays the new switch name and IP address for the old configuration.
NOTE
This feature requires a Trial or Licensed version.
1. Select Configure > Configuration File > Configuration File Manager.
The Configuration File Manager dialog box displays.
