Working with Snapshots

Snapshots create a copy of currently installed PureMessage components and their configuration, which can subsequently be restored if new changes cause problems.

Note: Snapshots do not back up user data.

An initial snapshot is automatically created when PureMessage is successfully installed. After you configure PureMessage to your satisfaction, you should create a new snapshot. It is also recommended that you create new snapshots whenever you change your configuration. Don't delete old snapshots until you are certain that a newer configuration is working properly and you have created a snapshot of it.

Snapshots can be created, restored, or deleted on the command line using the PureMessage Installer. Snapshots can also be created, restored and deleted at any time in the PureMessage Manager. Use snapshots to create save points for good configurations, test with new configurations, and roll back to previous versions of PureMessage
