Configuration Sets 编辑

This page lets you manage your configuration sets. A configuration set is a logical container used to organize a set of Workspace Environment Management (WEM) configurations. You can perform the following operations:

• Add a configuration set
• Edit or delete a configuration set

There are two built-in configuration sets:

• Default Site. A built-in WEM configuration set.

Note:

• For Default Site, you cannot delete it. You can change its name and description if necessary.
• For Unbound Agents, you cannot delete or edit it. The Edit configuration set option is unavailable.

Back up and restore

The Backup and restore page displays a list of your existing backups. There are two types of backups: automatic backup and manual configuration set backup. You can differentiate automatic backups from manual configuration set backups by the Content type column.

For each backup, you can perform the following operations:

• Restore. Lets you restore a configuration from the backup. Restoring a configuration from a backup replaces all settings related to the selected configuration set with those from the backup.

• Download. Lets you save a copy of the backup to your local machine. The backup is saved to the default download location of your browser. The backup file is in JSON format.

• Delete. Lets you delete an existing backup.
