You can back up and restore several categories of settings.

We recommend that you save the backup file to a network server, not the Fiery server itself. Otherwise, when you reinstall system software, the backup file is deleted.

Important information to consider when you back up and restore:

• Saved Backup and Restore settings can be used from both Configure and Command WorkStation.

• In the case of upgrading your Fiery server to a new system software version, you can restore the backup file created from the previous version. However, all new settings not available in the previous system software are set to system default.

• Backup and Restore settings can be restored to another Fiery server of the same model and version, but settings such as Server Name, IP address and Network settings are not restored; the existing settings remain untouched. This prevents problems with both Fiery servers co-existing on the same network.
