The SBC EMA provides the ability to generate a system backup file. The user can restore the configuration files from the storage location. During this process, the system will restart and the user has to re-login, once the system is up and running. This is useful if you upgrade the SBC and need to reload the old configurations.
SBC provides an option to upload backup files from an external source.
The system creates and maintains daily automatic backups for the last seven days and you can take up to 10 configuration backups.
Perform the following tasks to Restore the configuration :
Navigate to Administration > System Administration > Backup/Restore.
System backup/Restore Screen
Click Restore. A confirmation message is displayed seeking your permission to load the selected configuration and to restart the applications on active/standby servers as shown below:
Backup Current Software
Click OK to load the selected configuration file and to restart the applications on both Active and Standby servers.
When you load config dump taken from SBC versions older than 8.0, the SBC internally converts Oracle based policy dump to the Postgres format. This process takes approximately 25 minutes to complete.
