Netra Proxy Cache Array Configuration Guide

Backing Up Your Configuration

For this procedure, you need a formatted diskette. Perform this procedure on each host in your array. The procedure described here backs up your Solaris and proxy cache configuration.

To Backup a Netra Proxy Cache Server
  1. Insert a formatted diskette in the drive of your Netra Proxy Cache Server.

    The server detects the presence of a diskette in its drive and does not offer you the option of backing up to diskette unless the diskette is in place.

  2. Point your browser at the URL for the Netra Welcome page on the machine in which you have inserted a diskette:


    http://<netra server name>:81

  3. Log in to the Netra Proxy Cache Server.

    Enter user name setup and the administration password for that server.

  4. In the Welcome page, click the Administration link.

  5. In the Main Administration page, under the System Administration heading, click Save and Restore Configuration.

    The Save and Restore Configuration Administration page is displayed, as shown below.

    Because this is the first time the configuration is saved, there is no link for restoring a configuration.

  6. Click Save configuration to diskette.

    A confirmation page is displayed.

  7. Click OK to confirm the save operation.

    The copy operation begins. Upon completion, a success page, shown below, is displayed.

  8. Click the up-arrow icon to return to the Save and Restore Configuration page.

  9. Click the Eject diskette link.

    You are asked to verify the operation. Click OK. A success page is displayed.

  10. In the success page, click the home icon to return to the Main Administration page.

    It is recommended that you label the diskette, switch the read-write tab to the read-only position, and store the diskette in a safe place.

See Appendix A of the Netra Proxy Cache Array User's Manual for instructions on restoring each machine in a Netra Proxy Cache Array from diskette.
