Restore node configuration from a backup
Availability: This command is available to cluster administrators at the advanced privilege level.
Description
The
system configuration recovery node restore
command restores the configuration of the local node from
a configuration backup file.
Use the system configuration backup show command
to view available configuration backup files.
Parameters
- -backup <text> - Backup Name
- Use this parameter
to specify the name of a configuration backup file to use as
the configuration template.
- [-nodename-in-backup <text>] - Use Backup Identified by this Nodename
- Use this parameter
to specify a node within the configuration backup file to
use as a configuration template.
Only specify this parameter if
you are specifying a name other than
the name of the local node.
- [-force [true]] - Force Restore Operation
- Use this parameter
with the value true
to force the restore operation and overwrite
the current configuration of the local node.
This overrides all compatibility checks between
the node and the configuration backup.
The configuration in the backup is installed
even if it is not compatible with
the node's software and hardware.
Use this parameter
with the value false
to be warned of the specific dangers of restoring
and be prompted for confirmation before executing the command.
This value also assures that the command performs
compatibility checks between configuration stored in the backup
and the software and hardware of the node.
The default is false.
Examples
The following example shows how to restore the configuration of the local node from the configuration backup of
node3 that is stored in the configuration backup file
example.backup.7z.
cluster1::*> system configuration recovery node restore -backup example.backup.7z
Warning: This command overwrites local configuration files with files contained
in the specified backup file. Use this command only to recover from a
disaster that resulted in the loss of the local configuration files.
The node will reboot after restoring the local configuration.
