Export settings from the management console to back up the Deep Discovery Email Inspector configuration. If a system failure occurs, you can restore the settings by importing the configuration file that you previously backed up.

Important
Deep Discovery Email Inspector only supports restoring configurations from other Deep Discovery Email Inspector servers with a compatible license status and with the same firmware version, hardware model, and locale. For example, you cannot restore a server running version 5.1 with a configuration file backed up from a server running version 3.2 or earlier versions.
For more information on compatible licenses, see License Compatibility.
Note
Note
When exporting/importing your settings, the database will be locked. Therefore, all Deep Discovery Email Inspector actions that depend on database access will not function.
Trend Micro recommends:
  • Backing up the current configuration before each import operation
  • Performing the operation when Deep Discovery Email Inspector is idle. Importing and exporting affects Deep Discovery Email Inspector performance.
Back up settings to create a copy of Deep Discovery Email Inspector appliance configuration to restore the configuration in another Deep Discovery Email Inspector appliance or to revert to the backup settings at a later time. Replicate a configuration across several Deep Discovery Email Inspector appliances by restoring the same configuration file into each appliance.
