If an unrecoverable error occurs while the appliance is being restored, the appliance reboots and then resets to factory default settings. In that situation, use the user interface or REST APIs (Configure the appliance) to reconfigure the appliance.
After reconfiguring the appliance, use a different backup file to restore the appliance.
