Backing up and restoring Element Manager data

You can protect your data by backing it up and then restoring it as necessary.

What is backed up?

The data that is backed up is contained in the

Install_Home\Server

,

Install_Home\Client

and

Install_Home\Call Home

directories.

Install_Home

refers

to the directory where the HAFM application is installed.
The following data are backed up to disk:

All log files.

Zoning library (all zone sets and zone definitions). Note that zoning is configured through

HAFM.

Call-home configuration (including phone numbers and dialing options).

Configuration data.

NOTE:

This data can also be saved through the Backup & Restore Configuration option on

the Element Manager Maintenance menu.

Planning data is saved if the optional Planning feature is enabled through HAFM.

License information.

User launch scripts.

User defined sounds.

All data exported through the Export option on the HAFM SAN menu.

NOTE:

Firmware files are not backed up.

Backing Up to a CD

The rack-mount HAFM appliance is backed up to a compact disk, rewritable (CD-RW). As long as a

CD-RW disk remains in the CD recorder drive of the HAFM appliance, critical information from both

the Element Manager and the HAFM are automatically backed up to the CD-RW disk when the

contents of the data directory change or when you reboot HAFM.
