Backing Up the Configuration and Upgrading Firmware Backing Up System Configuration Settings HP strongly recommends saving the configuration after the initial configuration changes and periodically thereafter. FTP must be used on Windows workstations to back up the system configuration. The FTP server must be running before an upload can occur. Use the RSHD service or FTP on a UNIX machine. Note: The two supplied utilities, RSHD.EXE and CAT.EXE, currently do not support uploads for Windows, only downloads. These utilities are available from the support website: http://www.hp.com/support/ Use these steps to upload a backup copy of the configuration settings to a host computer. 1. Verify that the RSHD service (on a UNIX machine) or the FTP service (on a Windows or UNIX machine) is running on the host workstation. 2. Log into the switch as the admin user. 3. At the command line enter the following command: configUpload hostIPaddr user path_filename password For example, hostIPaddr is the IP address of the host computer, user is the User ID used to log into this computer, path_filename is the path location and filename of the configuration file, and password is the password for the user ID specified. If only configupload is entered, the system will prompt you for each parameter, as follows: Example: switch:admin> configupload Server Name or IP Address [host]: 123.45.678.901 User Name [user]: kelev File Name [config.txt]: switch1 Protocol (RSHD or FTP) [rshd]: ftp Password: upload complete 86 SAN Switch 2/16 Version 3.1.x Installation Guide
