Saved Configurations

On the Saved Configurations page, you can create and manage backups of configuration information for the various types of servers used in an operational BMC AMI Ops Console Management system. You can download and upload these backups from your desktop computer.

If you need to replace your BMC AMI Ops Console Management system because of hardware failure, you must also make any changes or perform a test on your BMC AMI Ops Console Management configuration to facilitate restoring operations. In such scenarios, we strongly recommend that you use the Saved Configurations feature.

Important

Restoring a saved configuration completely replaces the current configuration. The restore process automatically creates a backup of the current configuration so that you can undo a restore process if necessary.
