The prerequisites for performing a restore are as follows:
-
Users have agreed to the license agreement of the controller node.
-
CLIs have been installed in the controller node.
-
If the OS of the controller node is Windows, command prompts and PowerShell can be used. If the OS is Linux, a terminal emulator can be used.
-
Users have obtained a configuration backup file.
-
Users have backed up user data because the restore operation targets only configuration information.
If Data at rest encryption is used at the time of configuration backup, performing configuration restore changes the UUID of a user data encryption key. Therefore, if the UUIDs of encryption keys are managed outside of VSP One SDS Block, see the encryption key information after configuration restoration is complete and review the information for the externally managed encryption keys.
If you run the CLI when the CLI program version is older than the storage software version, a warning message that prompts you to upgrade the CLI program version to the same as or later than the storage software version will be output to the standard error output.
-
If the OS of the controller node is Windows, use the Command Prompt window when running CLI commands from the controller node. Use PowerShell when executing instructions other than Windows commands.
-
In a command example in this manual, a command to be run at a time might be written in multiple lines. As for the line break character (for example, \, ^, or `), replace it to the one that suits for your OS or terminal (on which you run the command).
