ConsoleServer 3200 System Lightwave Communications

Rev. A - 24 - www.lightwavecom.com

3. At the sys admin> prompt, type RESTORE and press <ENTER>. The SCS3230 will

prompt for confirmation to proceed with the parameter restore process. Type YES and

press <ENTER> to proceed. The system will ask for a second confirmation to proceed.

Type YES and <ENTER> to start the parameter restore process. After the second

confirmation, there is no text echoed to the screen indicating that the restore process is

proceeding.

4. Using the communications program, send the text file containing the backup records to

the SCS3230. Be sure to use text mode when transferring the file. The file download

should not take too much time; less than a minute is typical at 38.4K baud. After the

download is complete, the SCS3230 will re-zero all unused records. If a problem is

encountered during the text file transfer, the SCS3230 will abort the restore process and

return to the sys admin> prompt.

5. Once all unused records have been re-zeroed, the SCS3230 will reboot. Allow the

complete memory check to proceed; after it is done, log in as the sys admin at the

LCI3200> prompt.

6. The ConsoleServer is restored to its previous settings and is ready for use. Check that

all user, terminal, device, and other parameters are correct and acceptable.

4.2.3 To RESTORE from a 3200 to a 3230

Use a terminal emulation software on a PC connected to the sysadmin port of a 3200. Ensure

that software flow control (XON/XOFF) is turned on for the software.

1. Implement a capture to file.

2. type “backup”.

3. Wait until you see “$BACKUP COMPLETE”

4. edit the backup file and remove any information before the line which starts 0,… This is

probably the first line. Also remove the couple of lines that say $BACKUP COMPLETE. After

the backup there will be some extraneous information, this needs to be removed.

Copy the file to the 3230. This can be accomplished using pscp or scp

Cd to /lci/bin

Step 1) Type ‘restore “file name” yes’

“file name” is the name of the file you just copied.

The last yes is needed if you want to be told what passwords the system is inserting for this

user. If you do not want to see the passwords, do not type anything.

Unless there is an issue, you will observe users being added to the system and any changes

that take place to the user name or password. If you receive a message about record number

being incorrect, the file is either corrupt from flow control or you have not edited out the

extraneous information that is in the file from doing the backup.

If the service multidrop is running you will be asked to stop it and told how to do so ‘type

“service multidrop stop”’. Goto step 1.
