Backing Up And Restoring The Imagepress Server Configuration Settings - Canon imagePRESS Server G200 Configuration And Setup

Important: This procedure overwrites all data, customizations, and software updates implemented on the
imagePRESS Server since the customized backup image was created. It also overwrites any backup image
that is stored locally. If you restore from a factory default image, all data is lost.
Important: A customized image can only be restored to the same imagePRESS Server unit from which it
was created.
1 If applicable, attach the external hard drive or USB containing the image to the imagePRESS Server.
2 In WebTools, click the Fiery System Restore tab and then click Restore.
3 Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the restore.
4 Optional: After restoring the imagePRESS Server, run System Updates to ensure the latest imagePRESS
Server software version is installed, or request the service technician to install the patches.
5 Optional: If a backup of the configuration settings is available, restore the configuration settings as described
in this document.
This can be useful if the configuration backup is more current than the system image backup (such as if you
restored from factory default), or if the configuration backup included the job log and VDP/FreeForm
resources.
Fiery Clone Tool
With the Fiery Clone Tool, you can copy the contents of the imagePRESS Server hard disk to an image file, and then
save the image file to a folder on the imagePRESS Server hard disk or a USB storage device connected to the
imagePRESS Server.
The Fiery Clone Tool does not copy the Held queue, Printed queue, or archived jobs. For more information, see the
documentation that accompanies the Fiery Clone Tool.

Backing up and restoring the imagePRESS Server configuration settings

You can back up and restore the imagePRESS Server configuration settings as a separate file from the system image.
You can restore the configuration settings file if you want to reapply the custom settings after reinstalling or
upgrading system software.
The configuration settings backup file can be applied to any imagePRESS Server unit that has the same version of
imagePRESS Server software installed (the client software utilities version does not matter). To determine the
imagePRESS Server software version, view the configuration summary in Configure.
You can back up and restore the configuration settings through Configure or Command WorkStation, both of which
provide the same options for which settings to back up. This document describes the Configure feature. For
information about the Command WorkStation feature, see Command WorkStation Help.
