Backup MSA2000 Configuration
Hello,
I would like to know how, if possible, to backup all the data of an MSA2000? I mean all its configuration, vdisks, volumes, mappings and everything?
For example, if my MSA2000 encounters a hardware problem, and i want to copy everything to a newer MSA, what should i do?
Thanks so much for you advices in advance
Regards

3. Click the Save Configuration File button
4. You will be prompted to save the configuration file to your computer
About the data you can restore it from the backup to the New MSA via different backup and restore methods.

Re: Backup MSA2000 Configuration
Unfortunately you can do this with the MSA2000G1 only, but not with G2 to G4.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: Backup MSA2000 Configuration
Hello,
The full name of the storage array that i have is "MSA P2000 G3" , so you're saying that it does not include the functionality of saving the configuration?
Thanks for your help in advance!
regards.

Re: Backup MSA2000 Configuration
No, there isn't.
However, if you gather the Store.log from HP P2000 then I can or HP Technical Support can help you further with information you require from it.
Store.log contains all the information of the HP P2000 Configuration, Event Details Etc. You can gather the same from Tools > Save Logs > Enter Required Details > Click Save/Generate Logs.

Re: Backup MSA2000 Configuration
Thank you so much for you answer.
However, I don't find the options you were talking about.
You find, joint to this message, a screen capture of the configuration of my MSA
Thanks in advance for your help

Re: Backup MSA2000 Configuration
As I mentioned earlier you can capture Configuration File for this HP MSA G1.
Moreover, I do recommend to keep the store.log file just for the sake of it.
You can save logs from HP MSA G1 by following below steps:
To download logs from the SMU:
1. Using your web browser connect to the SMU
2. Click Utilities тЖТ debug utilities тЖТ save logs to file
3. Fill in the name, address, and phone number fields
4. Select the types of logs you want to download (Select All)
5. When the logs have finished parsing click Download Selected Logs to File (takes 5-10mins)
6. Click Save to save the log files to your workstation
