Snapshot Options

Option

Description

Revert

Reverts to a user created image.

Reverts to a factory default image, which is automatically created on Check Point appliances by the installation or upgrade procedure.

Delete

Deletes an image from the local file system.

Export

Exports an existing image.

This creates a compressed version of the image.

You can download the exported image to a different computer and delete the exported image from the local file system.

This saves disk space.

Import

Imports an exported image.

View

Shows a list of images that are stored locally.

Notes:

  • You must not rename the exported image. If you rename a snapshot image, it is not possible to revert to it.

  • You can import a snapshot only on the machine of the same hardware type, from which it was exported.
