G Saving and restoring the MPX200 configuration The MPX200 configuration information is saved as a .bin or .tgz file, depending on the method used to restore the MPX200 persistent data. The MPX200 configuration information is saved and restored using the MPX200 CLI commands or HP Command View EVA (see " Saving or restoring the MPX200 configuration" on page 42). NOTE: As with any important database, the MPX200 persistent data should be saved periodically to avoid data loss from hardware or software errors. It is also important to save the configuration information before replacing the MPX200. Saving the configuration using MPX200 CLI Using the MPX200 CLI to save the configuration information places the file in the MPX200's FTP directory. You must then move the file using FTP from the MPX200 (an FTP client accesses the file and moves it to any desired location). To save the configuration using the MPX200 CLI: 1. Log in to the MPX200 using a Telnet session to the management port or the console port: Username: guest Password: password 2. Enter the following command: MPX200> admin start 3. Enter config as the password. 4. Enter the following command: MPX200 (admin) #> fru save FRU save completed. Configuration File is HP_StorageWorks_MPX200_FRU.bin. Please use FTP to extract the file out from the System. MPX200 (admin) #> NOTE: The FRU save creates a bin file containing the router persistent data, configuration, and LUN mappings. The file is stored in the router directory /var/ftp. You must then FTP the tar file from the router. MPX200 Multifunction Router User Guide 271
