Write Erase - will I lose license info?

Hi,
I have a requirement to move 2 x MDS9513 switches from one site to another and add them into an existing fabric.
The configuration will need to be erased once moved in order to re-configure IP addresses, switch name etc.
The plan is to perform a "write erase"
My question is : Will a "write erase" delete any license information held on the switch?
Regards
Rich

Hello,
Please be sure to have backup Licenses before doing a "write erase" on the MDS switch.
Pease see here from Obtaining and Installing Licenses:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/customer/products/ps5989/products_configuration_guide_chapter09186a0080664c67.html
Tip We recommend backing up your license files immediately after installing them and just before issuing a write erase command.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Carlos

  • Will I lose current info i.e. contacts on iPhone if I restore to a previous date

    Will I lose current info i.e new contacts on iPhone if I restore to a previous date?

    Yes, you will.
    Restoring is an "all or nothing" proposition.  When you restore, everything will appear as it did back then.

  • If I download the new version will I lose the info I already have?

    I have 6.0 but want to download the 7.0 version. Will I lose the 1548 songs I currently have on the 6.0 version if I download the new version or will all info transfer?

    Everything will transfer just fine---you'll just a get a new interface and some new functions, but all your music and playlists, whatever, will still be just as you set it up in iTunes 6.
    Although, I use iTunes on my Mac and I have had no problems, and it seems that some people are having some trouble with iTunes 7 on Windows, so maybe you might want to check through the forums and maybe wait a bit.

  • Restore WinXP, will I lose my info if I reinstall itunes ?

    I had to restore my Sony Notebook computer because of problems.
    If I reinstalled itunes, will it copy all my info from the iphone to the itune program?? including contacts too ?
    I dont want to dock the iphone until I know for sure I wont lose my contacts.
    Thanks.

    Did you include your iTunes library with your computer's backup along with all other important data before restoring your computer?
    In regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced with an iTunes library on a single computer only. When syncing iTunes content with a different computer, all iTunes content on your iPhone that was transferred to your iPhone from another computer will be erased first. The same applies to photos transferred to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process. Your iPhone will detect your computer as a new or different computer since you restored it - even if you included your iTunes library with your computer's backup and restore your iTunes library from your backup after restoring your computer.
    Contact info is designed to be synced with a supported address book application on your computer. With XP, this can be with Outlook 2003 or 2007 along with syncing calendar events, or with the address book used by Outlook Express.
    When syncing iTunes content with a new or different computer, contact info on your iPhone will not be erased or touched, unless you are syncing contact info with a supported address book application on your computer.
    If you are syncing contact info and calendar events with Outlook 2003 or 2007 and you didn't include your Outlook data with your computer's backup before restoring your computer - your Outlook address book and calendar is empty, before syncing this data with Outlook, enter one contact in the address book and one calendar event in Outlook. Make these up if needed, which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt when syncing this data, which you want to select. The same applies to the address book used by Outlook Express before syncing contact info with the address book used by OE.
    If you didn't include your iTunes library with your computer's backup before restoring your computer, iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content from an iPod or iPhone that was purchased from the iTunes store, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased from the iTunes store only. First you need to re-authorize your computer with your iTunes account with iTunes. With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
    iTunes includes a preference setting to disable automatic syncing when any iPod or iPhone is connected. Go to iTunes preferences. Under the devices tab, select disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods before connecting your iPhone.

  • My wife and I each have iPads ipods and iPhones on one Apple account . Should we create a new account? What happens to our iTunes ,apps and iCloud? Can we share them? Will we lose any info?

    MY wife and I share and Apple ID . We both have iPads, iPods, and iphones
    all our purchases in iTunes , apps and iCloud are on this . If we create a new ID for one of us do we lose any of the data and purchased material or do we still share?

    I would suggest that one of you retain the existing AppleID and use it for the iTunes Store, iCloud, and Messages on their iOS device and/or Mac accounts.
    Then, the other one of you can create a new AppleID.
    You then have two choices for how to share your existing store purchases:
    1) You can try the new "Family Sharing" feature: http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/family-sharing/
    2) Or you can simply continue to use the original AppleID as your "iTunes Store" login on all of your devices (yours and your wife's), yet use a different AppleID to login to iCloud and Messages.
    Family Sharing is supposed to be the solution to the problem and does indeed have some interesting shared features.  However, just using the same iTunes Store login has worked reliable for years.
    The important this to realize is that in iOS and Mac OS, the logins for the Apple Store, Messages, and iCloud are all completely separate and can be independently configured.  So, you can each use your own AppleID for login to each of those services.  Just make sure to both login to the iTunes Store service using the same original AppleID.

  • If I uninstall PS Elements 6, will I lose the info in Bridge??

    I have been trying for several days to download the free actions from www.thepioneerwoman.com. Each time has been a failed attempt. I have checked the "photo effects" folder and the actions are there. I rename the mediadatabase.db3 to mediadatabaseOLD.db3 and then open PSE but still, nothing. After the numerous sites I've read I'm assuming unistalling the program and installing it again might help me... maybe.  Anyone have any thoughts or guidance?  I'm at my wits end!!!  Thanks!!
    Jennifer

    Hi Barbara, thanks for responding!!  I'm 99% sure I'm putting the actions in the right place. I've followed countless video tutorials and from my understanding they are all in the right place.  I'll try completely throwing away the mediadatabase.db3.  Off to try that now.    Wish me luck!

  • Will I lose Word if i update to Mavericks?

    I have a late 2010 Mac Book Pro and it's still running OS X 10.6.8. I want to uPdate to Mavericks, it's free after all. What will happen when i update?
    Will i lose any info? Word? Excel? Etc.

    Back up your data and check your applications for compatibility first. Nothing will be deleted from the drive unless a problem occurs, but if you're using Microsoft Office 2004 or earlier, or any other PowerPC software, it won't run afterwards.

  • I just bought a new computer, if I erase and sync my iphone to sync it to my new library, will I lose my apps?

    Hey cjacket13,
    When you purchase applications on your iOS device, they are tied to your Apple ID so even if you lose them, you can re-download them from your purchase history.
    That said, when you first sync your iPhone to your new computer you'll want to transfer purchases from your iOS device to the computer by following these directions here:

  • HT1296 was using my daughters itunes account and now have my own. If I "erase and sync" will I lose my data from my purchased games? I have transferred apps and backed up to my computer.

    One computer iTunes can support multiple Apple IDs.  One iPod can also support multiple IDs.  Don't do an "erase and sync."  Simply add your Apple ID to the computer's iTunes and to the iPod.  The only nuisance is app updating, especially if you do the updates from the computer, rather than from the iPod.

  • I just bought a used MBA 2013. The name of the first owner appears in every place, even after I erased everything from him in the machine. A clean install would help? Will I lose I Life?

    If I make a clean install of the MacOS, will I lose I Life?
    Is it possible to erase all information from the previous owner of the MBA?

    Hi Niel.
    So i could register in my name, (as a opposed to beaus) and give the computer a new name (long and short) ?
    Apple care would recognize the changes as long as it is the same serial #,
    Is that correct ?
    Thanks again for your help.

  • HT1766 If I erase all data and settings on iPhone 4S will I lose my purchases

    I have a iPhone 4S I bought on December 9th 2012 from sprint and I'm not sure if I will lose all my iTunes purchases like my movies TV shows and TV show seasons some I bought with a gift card and I'm low on gb so I want to know if I backup or reset all data and settings will I lose all my purchases movies apps etc?

    Erasing all Content and Settings completely erases the phone.  Your purchases should be in your iTunes library.  If not, connect your phone to iTunes, make sure your computer is authorized for all Apple IDs used to purchase your media (in Store>Authorize This Computer), then go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases to transfer your purchases to your iTunes library.  You can then selectively remove media from your phone without erasing the entire phone, and sync it back later as desired.

  • Will I lose changes that I have made to song info if I start using iTunes match?

    Will I lose changes that I have made to song info (like genre) if I start using iTunes match?  Also, if I make song info changes to purchased songs, will I lose those changes with iTunes match?

    Some people have reported issue with metadata but I personally have had few problems with metadata changes. I have not had any data arbitrarily changed apart from a few issue with purchased tracks where initially so es changes did not stick but eventually did.
