About saving and restoring settings while reimaging

If you are reimaging a K2 Summit system with a generic disk image, you can run scripts to save the media file system and other settings before the reimage, then restore the settings after the reimage. Setting are saved and restored as follows:
  • Media file system (SNFS): You run scripts to save and restore these settings. After the settings are restored, on a standalone system you can access the media in the local media storage.
  • SID, computer name, and network settings: You run the script to save settings to a text file, so you can manually reconfigure as desired after the reimage.

If the media file system and settings are valid (not corrupt) on the K2 Summit system before the reimage, it is recommended that you use the save/restore scripts to save your media and settings, thus saving time in the reimage process. However, if the media file system or settings are corrupt and your purpose for reimaging is to remove the corruption, it is likely that you do not want to use the save/restore scripts.
