other protocol settings to factory defaults, eliminates all shares to all volumes,
and returns settings for server name, date and time, users, groups, quotas, and
the activation and configuration of CA
e

Notes
You cannot initiate a reset to defaults if a Snaptree conversion is in progress.
Rebooting or shutting down the server in the middle of an ACL reset will halt
the operation, and it will not recommence on reboot.
Performing System Resets Without Network Access
Should access to the server be lost, the Reset or LCD panel buttons can be used to
reset server settings and re-establish connectivity.
To Perform a Limited Reset Using the Reset Button
On Snap Server 4200 and 4500, the reset button is a white button located to the left
of the black power button underneath the front bezel. On all other Snap Servers,
the Reset button is accessed via a small hole next to the Power button on the front of
the server.
Verify that the server is fully booted (as indicated by the System LED
blinking once per second), and push the
Reset
button. The system will reboot after
about a minute. As a part of the reset and reboot process, the Snap Server does the
following:
Clears user-defined settings such as DHCP configuration
Resets the server name to its default setting (
SNAP<server number>
)
Resets network speed and bonding settings to their defaults
