Parameters
Description
This command stores a backup of the current NIC teaming configuration in the
specified file. If the specified file exists, the command returns an error. You can include
a directory path in addition to the filename. If no directory path is specified, the backup
file is placed in the current working directory. Any directory path that you specify must
exist and must be absolute or relative to the current working directory. If the directory
path name or the file name contains spaces, then you must enclose the entire file
specification in quotes or double quotes.
In addition to the configuration information, the server name of the machine that
created the backup and the list of NIC adapters present are included in the backup
data. Backup files are saved as simple text files.
Note: Backup files should not be edited or altered.
Use the backup option after a teaming configuration is complete or has changed. Use
the restore option when you want to:

Replicate a server

Rebuild a server

Replace a failed adapter

Change a current configuration to a previous one
