Lenovo ThinkServer TD200 - Manual (Page 52)

Backing up your current configuration
You can download a copy of your current IMM configuration to the client
computer that is running the IMM Web interface. Use this backup copy to restore
your IMM configuration if it is accidentally changed or damaged. Use it as a base
that you can modify to configure multiple IMMs with similar configurations.
The configuration information that is saved under this procedure does not include
the server firmware configuration settings or any IPMI settings that are not
common with the non-IMPI user interfaces.
To back up your current configuration, complete the following steps:
1.
Log in to the IMM where you want to back up your current configuration. For
more information, see Chapter 2, “Opening and using the IMM Web interface,”
on page 9.
2. In the navigation pane, click Configuration File.
3. In the Backup IMM Configuration area, click view the current configuration
summary
.
4. Verify the settings and then click Close.
5. To back up this configuration, click Backup.
6. Type a name for the backup, select the location where the file will be saved,
and then click Save.
In Mozilla Firefox, click Save File, then click OK.
In Microsoft Internet Explorer, click Save this file to disk, then click OK.
Restoring and modifying your IMM configuration
You can restore a saved configuration in full, or you can modify key fields in the
saved configuration before you restore the configuration to your IMM. By
modifying the configuration file before you restore it, you can set up multiple
IMMs with similar configurations. You can quickly specify parameters that require
unique values such as names and IP addresses, without having to enter common,
shared information.
To restore or modify your current configuration, complete the following steps:
1. Log in to the IMM where you want to restore the configuration. For more
information, see Chapter 2, “Opening and using the IMM Web interface,” on
page 9.
2. In the navigation pane, click Configuration File.
3. In the Restore IMM Configuration area, click Browse.
4. Click the configuration file that you want; then, click Open. The file
(including the full path) appears in the box next to Browse.
5. If you do not want to make changes to the configuration file, click Restore. A
new window opens with the IMM configuration information. Make sure that
this is the configuration that you want to restore. If it is not the correct
configuration, click Cancel.
If you want to make changes to the configuration file before you restore the
configuration, click Modify and Restore to open an editable configuration
summary window. Initially, only the fields that allow changes are displayed.
To change between this view and the complete configuration summary view,
click the Toggle View button at the top or bottom of the window. To modify
the contents of a field, click the corresponding text box and enter the data.
