How to Backup/Restore my Isilon Simulator's config ?

Hi,

What would be the cleanest way to backup and restore a OneFS Simulator cluster configuration? We need to reinstall our 3-node simulator from 9.4 to 9.10 via OVA (direct upgrade not supported) and want to avoid losing the existing config.

Thanks!

Hi.

Thank you for your question.

There is no support for it, but you can try these commands.

isi cluster config exports create --components=nfs,smb,network,auth

isi cluster config imports create --components=nfs,smb,network --id <JobID>

 

Let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with.

Thanks,

Josh
