2. If one or more capacity and/or deduplication licenses had been added to the VLS, re-install the VLS capacity and deduplication licenses. See Re-installing the VLS Licenses. The node is now fully restored. Restoring the Configuration Settings The VLS virtual library configuration and network settings can be quickly restored from the configuration file created by performing Saving Configuration Settings. See Restoring the Virtual Library Configuration from a Configuration File. If a configuration file was not created, you must reconfigure the network settings, and rebuild the virtual library and virtual drive configurations. The cartridge configurations, however, do not have to be rebuilt, as they are stored on the disk arrays. See Rebuilding the Virtual Library Configuration. Restoring the Virtual Library Configuration from a Configuration File Restoring the virtual library configuration from the configuration file restores the virtual library and virtual drive configurations, and administrative and network settings (including the VLS serial number and persistent Fibre Channel port WWPNs). NOTE: Configuration files are not backwards compatible with earlier firmware versions. For example, a configuration file created on a system running firmware version 3.1.2 will not work on the system at firmware version 3.1.0. Make sure your system is at the version that created the configuration file before restoring the configuration. To restore the virtual library and network settings from the configuration file: 1. Set the network settings so you can open a Command View VLS session. See Setting the Network Settings. 2. Open a Command View VLS session and log in as the administrator. See Opening a Command View VLS Session from a Web Browser. 3. Select Chassis in the navigation tree. 4. Click Restore Config under Maintenance Tasks. The Restore Config window opens. 5. Click Browse. 6. Locate and select the desired configuration file. 7. Click Open. 8. Click Next Step. A message displays indicating that the file was uploaded successfully. 9. Click Next to start loading the configuration file. After the configuration file is loaded, the system automatically applies the configuration and reboots.
