Saved Configurations


The Saved Configurations web pages allow you to create and manage backups of configuration information for the various types of servers used in an operational MVCM system. These backups may be downloaded to and uploaded from your desktop computer; we highly recommend that you make use of this feature any time you have made and tested changes to your MVCM configuration in order to facilitate restoring operations in case your MVCM system needs to be replaced because of hardware failure.

Note

Restoring a saved configuration will completely replace the current configuration. The restore process will automatically create a backup of the current configuration so that you will be able to undo a restore if necessary.

The following buttons enable you to navigate among these pages:

This page lists the backups stored on the MVCM system with their name and creation time. Buttons to the right of each backup allow you to perform a number of functions:

Download

Downloads a .zip file to your PC containing the backup.

Delete

Allows you to delete the backup. You will be prompted to confirm your decision before the backup is actually deleted.

Details

Lists the description you provided when you created the backup.

Restore

Allows you to replace the current MVCM configuration with that stored in the backup. You will be prompted to confirm your decision before the backup is actually restored. The restore process will automatically create a backup of the current configuration so that you will be able to undo a restore if necessary.

Create Saved Configuration

This page prompts you for a backup name and description and lists the server configurations which will be included in the backup. Click the Submit button to create the backup or the Cancel button if you do not wish to create the backup.

Upload Saved Configuration

This page allows you to move a backup previously downloaded to your PC back to the MVCM system where it will appear in the list of available backups. Use the Browse button to locate the backup .zip file and the Upload button to transfer it to the MVCM system.
