What is backed up?

The following data, contained in the

<Install_Home>\Server

,

<Install_Home>\Client

,

and

<Install_Home>\Call Home

directories, are backed up to disk:

NOTE:

<Install_Home>

refers to the directory where the HAFM application is installed.

•

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.

•

Plans. Data is saved if the optional Planning feature is available 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 data directory contents change or when you reboot HAFM.

Restoring data from a CD

To restore data to HAFM, copy the three folders from the CD-RW (

D:\Backup\

) and paste them in

C:\Program Files\<Install_Home>

. You will be asked if you want to overwrite the existing

files; click Yes.

Manual backup procedures

A full data backup occurs the first time that you configure any parameter on a new HAFM

appliance. See ”

” on page 48 for a list of data backed up for a complete
