Restoring to a Single Node Environment

The procedure for restoring the cluster backup to the controller depends on the controller environment – whether it is a single node environment or a multi-node environment.

Follow these steps to restore a cluster backup to a single node environment.
  1. Prepare the new controller to which you will restore the cluster backup.
    1. Either obtain a new controller or factory reset an existing controller.
    2. Log on to the controller as a system administrator.
    3. Run the setup command to configure the controller's network settings.
      ruckus> setup
      ################################################
      Start SCG setup process:
      ################################################
       :
       :
      Setup configuration of ethers...
      Network would be restarted. You could connect to SCG back by using Management port (10.2.2.35)!!
      Enter "restart network" to continue... restart network
  2. Transfer the backup file from the FTP server to the controller.
    1. Log on to the controller CLI as a system administrator.
    2. Run the enable command to enable privileged mode on the CLI.
      ruckus> enable
      Password: ********
      ruckus#
    3. Run the copy <ftp-url> backup command to transfer the backup file from the FTP server to the controller.
      ruckus# copy <ftp-url> backup
      NOTE
      If there is only one backup file on the FTP server, the system will automatically transfer this file to the controller. If there are multiple files, it will show the list of all available files and you will be prompted to select the file that you want to transfer.
  3. Run the restore local command to restore the backup file to the controller.
    ruckus# restore local
    This action will REBOOT the system. Do you want to only restore this SCG node (yes/no)? yes
