For SmartServer 3.4 and higher, see Backing Up, Restoring, and Cloning the SmartServer. |
The SmartServer ships with an SD Card inserted into the appropriate slot on the device. The CMS database is located on the SD Card. This SD Card must remain inserted in the SmartServer whenever power is applied to the SmartServer.
The CMS Storage widget provides the ability to view system information including internal flash memory, CPU utilization, and log sizes, as well as to perform system and database backup, restore, and cloning operations. It also provides the ability to change logging settings (data and/or event logging, and storing on an SD Card).

- Backing Up and Replacing a SmartServer – the backup/replace method can use a backup for the same SmartServer only, or a replacement SmartServer.
- Exporting and Importing a SmartServer Configuration – the export/import method saves the SmartServer configuration for deploying to multiple SmartServers. Typically, this method is used when building up your network.
Cloning and Deploying a SmartServer to Multiple Systems (Release 3.4) – the backup/cloning method backs up the SmartServer configuration and data. This method preserves the Host Name, Install Code, Serial Number, but changes the apollo password, MAC Addresses, and Segment ID (SID).
Warning title Warnings You cannot clone a target SmartServer with the same backup file more than once; however, if you re-image the SmartServer, then you can perform another clone. In addition, you cannot put two SmartServer clones on the same network.

You should save the apollo password for any backed-up SmartServer system image. If you restore a system image onto a new SmartServer, then that SmartServer will have its password changed to the old SmartServer's password (from the image file). If you use the CLONE tab to restore an image onto a new SmartServer, then the apollo password, MAC Addresses, and SID will be changed on the new SmartServer to what is stored on the image file. Host Name, Install Code, and Serial Number are not changed. If you use the SYSTEM tab or DATABASE tab to restore an image onto a new SmartServer, then the apollo password, Serial Number, Host Name, MAC Addresses, Install Code, and SID will be changed on the new SmartServer to what is stored on the image file. |
