Restore the cluster configuration from a Snapshot

Use the Restore task to restore a cluster snapshot from any cluster node. Restoring a cluster snapshot overwrites the current cluster configuration.

Fields

Name
Displays the name of the selected snapshot.
Description
Displays the description of the selected snapshot.
Unconfigure Cluster Resources
Use the Unconfigure Cluster Resources field, to select whether you want to unconfigure the cluster resources when you restore the cluster configuration from a Snapshot. Select Yes or No in the Unconfigure Cluster Resources field.
Yes
If you select Yes, the definition of a cluster resource in the Configuration Database changes and the configuration is updated. For example, if you remove a file system, it is removed from the Configuration Database and is also unmounted. By default, this field is set to Yes.
No
If you select No, the definition of a cluster resource in the Configuration Database changes but the configuration is not updated. For example, if you remove a file system, it is removed from the Configuration Database but is not unmounted. The file system is unmounted during a PowerHA® SystemMirror fallover process.
Force apply if verify fails
Use the Force apply if verify fails field to specify whether you want to force the synchronization process to occur even if the verification process fails.
Yes
If you select Yes, the synchronization process starts even if the maximum number of allowable errors occur during the verification process.
No
If you select No, the synchronization process stops if the maximum number of allowable errors occur during the verification process. As part of the dynamic reconfiguration process, a new configuration is verified before it becomes the active configuration. By default, this field is set to No.
