Restore the Fiery ES system using Fiery System Restore
Important: If the hard disk is not booting, the system must be restored from a bootable backup. If it
becomes necessary to restore the Fiery ES from a bootable image, contact your service technician.
Important: Before you restore the Fiery ES, we recommend that you contact technical support to confirm
the necessity of restoring.
Important: This procedure overwrites all data, customizations, and software updates implemented on the
Fiery ES since the customized backup image was created. It also overwrites any backup image that is stored
locally. If you restore from a factory default image, all data is lost.
Important: A customized image can only be restored to the same Fiery ES unit from which it was created.
1
If applicable, attach the external hard drive or USB containing the image to the Fiery ES.
2 On the Home tab in WebTools, select Restore under Fiery System Restore.
3
Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the restore.
4 Optional: After restoring the Fiery ES, run System Updates to ensure the latest Fiery ES software version is
installed, or request the service technician to install the patches.
5
Optional: If a backup of the configuration settings is available, restore the configuration settings as described
in this document.
This can be useful if the configuration backup is more current than the system image backup (such as if you
restored from factory default), or if the configuration backup included the job log and VDP/FreeForm
resources.
Backing up and restoring the Fiery ES configuration settings
You can back up and restore the Fiery ES configuration settings as a separate file from the system image. You can
restore the configuration settings file if you want to reapply the custom settings after reinstalling or upgrading
system software.
The configuration settings backup file can be applied to any Fiery ES unit that has the same version of Fiery ES
software installed (the client software utilities version does not matter). To determine the Fiery ES software version,
view the configuration summary in Configure.
You can back up and restore the configuration settings through Configure or Command WorkStation, both of which
provide the same options for which settings to back up. This document describes the Configure feature. For
information about the Command WorkStation feature, see Command WorkStation Help.
