User Data Backup
All user data should be regularly backed up to an external memory device. This
can be done across a network or to a USB device. Your IT department may
already have a backup strategy which is suitable for the system and data. Also,
user data back up must be done just prior to sending the controller back to
Keysight for service.
The operating system supplied with your M9037A is licensed for use on the Solid
State Drive (SSD) installed in the controller. If the SSD is replaced, you may be
responsible to purchase or relicense the operating system.
System Backup and Recovery
After activating the Windows OS, you should create a complete System Image of
your SSD as a backup in case you ever need to reinstall the operating system.
There are several third-party backup solutions available. By definition, a system
image is an exact copy of the computer hard drive. A system image includes the
Windows operating system files as well as your system settings, application
programs, and data files. You should regularly create a system image so that all
data, applications, etc. have backups. The system image may be stored on a USB
memory stick, multiple CD/DVDs, an external (USB) hard drive, or to a separate
LAN drive.
When you restore your hard drive from a system image, it's a complete
restoration—you cannot choose individual items to restore, and all of your current
programs, system settings, and files are replaced with the contents of the system
image. Therefore, you should also keep a regular backup of your data and
applications.
You can also create Windows Restore Points to return your system files and
settings without affecting data or application files.
Microsoft Windows is the only operating system installed on your M9037A. There
is a small system partition for the Keysight Recovery System on the SSD. During
the OS boot process, you are given the choice to boot normally or boot from the
recovery partition.
