Save the Configuration to a File

Saving a configuration to a file allows you to reuse the configuration at a later time,

such as to restore a changed configuration or to migrate the configuration across other

adapters or systems.
The file must be saved to a formatted storage medium with a valid file system

recognized by the EFI system firmware or boot code. This can include partitioned and

formatted hard drives with a file allocation table (FAT) file system, floppy disk, or USB

device.
To save a configuration to a file:
1. On the Save Configuration menu, select 1. Save Configuration to File. The screen

shown in Figure 6-31 prompts you to enter a directory path to the file where the

configuration is to be saved.

2. After you enter the directory path, you are prompted to enter the file name. Do so,

and then press <Enter>. The screen shown in Figure 6-32 displays the status of the

save.
