Restore configuration workflow

Restore configuration workflow path: /usr/lpp/zcx_zos/workflows/restore_config.xml

This workflow will restore a previously backed up zCX instance configuration. You can back up a zCX instance by running the back up configuration workflow. Only one backup can exist at any given time, and the restore configuration workflow will display the both description of the backup and the date it was created.

The restore configuration workflow asks you to provide:
  1. The unique name of the zCX instance to restore
  2. The zCX instance registry path, if not specified in the workflow variables input file.
The following table provides descriptions of the variables needed to restore configuration:
Table 1. Restore configuration workflow variables
Variable Description
