About the factory reset operation

A factory reset restores the appliance to the original factory settings.

You might need to reset the appliance either to decommission it (so that you can migrate the hardware) or to return the appliance to a known state for reuse (for example, to restore the appliance from a backup file).

CAUTION: By default, the factory reset operation erases appliance data, including logs, network settings, and managed device settings in HPE OneView. You have the option of explicitly preserving network settings and logs.

By default, the factory reset operation erases appliance data, including logs and network settings. You have the option of explicitly preserving network settings and logs.

The factory reset operation does not change the installed firmware version.

The factory reset operation can be performed from the UI or from the Maintenance console.
