Restoring from a backup is a disruptive action:

The appliance restarts and users cannot log in to the appliance during the restore process. All users are logged out and their work is lost.

To prevent duplicate identifiers on the network, server hardware configurations are cleared if an associated server profile is not in the backup.

Server profiles that have been modified since the backup was taken are flagged with this message: 'Server profile settings conflict with the server hardware configuration'. To reapply the server profile configuration and restore network connectivity, you must unassign all flagged server profiles and then individually reassign the server profiles to the server hardware.

To prevent unintentional assignment of duplicate addresses or identifiers, all address and identifier ranges are disabled after the post-restore process completes. The appliance automatically re-creates replacement address and identifier ranges.

Tip: to minimize disruption, take frequent backups, especially after you make configuration changes to your environment.
