Configuration

Go to Administration > System > Configuration to complete a configuration backup or restore.

This backup and restore procedure is limited to configuration files and, optionally, logs and audit files. A system backup is a different procedure. A system backup is a full system snapshot rescue file (*-rescue-user.tgz). Creating a full system rescue file is an option during the system upgrade process.

Before you perform a backup procedure, decide what to back up and where to save the backup file:
