Name
Main > Support > FactoryReset — Reset the appliance to factory default settings.
SYNOPSIS
FactoryReset
FactoryReset ResetAll
DESCRIPTION
Use this command to reset the appliance to the factory default settings. If you changed the default factory-set password, this command resets it back to the default value.
For nodes in an appliance high availability (HA) setup, you must first remove the node from the HA setup and disconnect its Ethernet and Fibre Channel (FC) cables before a factory reset.
Note:
If you attempt to run a factory reset or initiate a rollback to a non-HA checkpoint on a node in an HA setup, the HA setup can malfunction.
Before a factory reset on any HA node, perform the following tasks in the order as they appear:
On the node that you do not want to remove, run the following command to remove the other node from the HA setup:
Manage > High Availability > Remove Node HostName
Where HostName is the host name of the node you want to remove.
Disconnect the Ethernet cables and the FC cables from the removed node.
After completing the previous tasks, you can run the FactoryReset command.
Note:
If you do not remove the node from the HA setup and disconnect the Ethernet and FC cables before a factory reset, the command fails. An error message appears to remind you to perform the previous tasks and then try the factory reset again.
OPTIONS
