3.7.2 Recovering definition information
To recover saved definition information, you can use the Saving and Recovering Settings dialog box or you can execute a command.
You must select one of the following formats for recovering definition information:
-
Do not delete settings at destination
This format recovers the definition file without deleting the existing settings at the destination.
-
Delete settings at destination
This format deletes the existing settings at the destination and then recovers the definition file.
- In the event of a failure during recovery processing
-
If a failure occurs during recovery processing, the definition information is not recovered. We recommend that you always save the existing settings before you perform recovery with Delete settings at destination specified.
- About the log information directory during recovery of an environment definition
-
The log information directory specified in the environment definition is not created automatically. If you are using a non-default log information directory, use the Environment Definition utility to update the environment definition. Without this directory, you will not be able to start various JP1/FTP services.
