Preserve Configuration

Use the Preserve Configuration window to select the settings that are NOT reset to factory default when you update the LOM firmware.

To save LOM settings:

  1. Select Maintenance > Preserve Configuration.

    The Preserve Configuration window opens.

  2. For each item, select Preserve Status to save all the settings that are related to the item.
