SG-5100 doesn't issue IP address anymore
-
But if the LAN is still configured that still a routing conflict even if it's disconnected.
-
Using
Local Resolverworked for installation. Now trying to restore, will see how that goes (not sure if I need to install packages manually) -
It should pull in the packages if they are in the config.
-
@stephenw10 oh nice, thanks. I'll check back in few hrs (and report if anything is missing). Does 7MB of config file sound correct? I've 2 backups from almost same time (1st is about 83kB and other is 7MB, I'm going with bigger one)
-
7MB is pretty huge for a config file but it might have all the RRD data in it if you selected that when backing up. It should restore fine.
-
@stephenw10 stopped with message:
package reinstall process was ABORTED due to lack of internet activityis there way to work around this?
I believe this is happening due to one of the VPN servers being used at the time of backup, not available anymore -
@stephenw10 which area is responsible for installing packages? (will restore that before other config)
-
You should almost always restore the full config. The config file version is only held in the main system section and that is what determines whether or not the config needs to be upgraded.
Only ever restore parts of the config if you're certain it's the current version. Even then I would always restore the full file unless I have a very specific reason not to.
-
@stephenw10 I see, how would I go about this then? Does restore still go through if packages are not installed
-
Yes, just restore the full config file and it will pull in any required packages.
