Archive the current state of the DNS Boss system By selecting 'Archive the current state of the DNS Boss system' from the 'Advanced' menu, a system archive is created. The archive is created with a date stamp for the file name. Here is an example showing a sample archive file. /var/opt/DNSBoss_archives/040105121609.tar.Z The archive files exist as compressed tar files. These archive files can be easily be copied to other systems running DNS Boss, to create replica DNS servers. To unpack a DNS Boss system archive file, simply use either the 'X', or Web UI and under the 'Advanced' menu, and select 'Revert to the following available DNS Boss system archive'. The DNS Boss system archive files can also be unpacked from the command line. Here is an example. /opt/DNSBoss/bin/unpack_archive /var/opt/DNSBoss_archives/040105121609.tar.Z
