11. System Management

To backup and restore using USB:

• Ensure the USB ﬂash is the only USB device attached to the console server.

• Select the Local Backup tab and click here to proceed. This will set a volume label on the USB storage device. This

preparation step is only necessary the ﬁrst time and will not affect any other information saved onto the USB storage device.

It is recommended you back up any critical data from the USB storage device before using it with your console server. If

there are multiple USB devices installed, you will be asked to remove them.

• To back up to USB, enter a brief Description of the backup in the Local Backup menu and select Save Backup.

• The Local Backup menu will display all conﬁguration backup ﬁles stored onto the USB ﬂash.

• To restore a backup from the USB, simply select Restore on the particular backup you wish to restore and click Apply.

After saving a local conﬁguration backup, you may choose to use it as the alternate default conﬁguration. When the console

server is reset to factory default, it will load your alternate default conﬁguration (instead of its factory settings):

• To set an alternate default conﬁguration, check Load On Erase and click Apply.

Note: Before selecting Load On Erase, ensure you have tested your alternate default conﬁguration by clicking Restore.

If for some reason your alternate default conﬁguration causes the console server to become unbootable, recover your unit to factory settings

using the following steps:

• If the conﬁguration is stored on an external USB storage device, unplug the storage device and reset to factory defaults (refer to 11.1

System Administration and Reset).

• If the conﬁguration is stored on an internal USB storage device, reset to factory defaults using a specially prepared USB storage device:

o The USB storage device must be formatted with a Windows FAT32/VFAT ﬁle system on the ﬁrst partition or the entire disk (most USB

thumb drives are already formatted this way).

o The ﬁle system must have the volume label: OPG_DEFAULT.

o Insert this USB storage device into an external USB port on the console server and reset to factory defaults as per section 11.1 System

Administration and Reset.

After recovering your console server, ensure the problematic conﬁguration is no longer selected for Load On Erase.
