-====== Recovery mode & backup features ====== 
  
-===== Recovery ===== 
-==== Instability detection ==== 
- 
-An instability counter is used to detect system instability. ​ 
-  * If 16 consecutive reboots are detected due to a watchdog, a “backup restore” operation is triggered. ​ 
-  * If 32 consecutive reboots are detected due to a watchdog, a “stock restore” operation is triggered. ​ 
- 
-The counter is reset if the system is up during at least 10 minutes. 
-This feature cannot be disabled as it avoids bricking the gateway in case of software failure. 
- 
-The counter ''​bootfail''​ is displayed at boot time only if the reboot is due to a watchdog. Bootcause information are available [[wiki:​troubleshoot#​bootcause|here]].

-===== Backup ===== 
-==== Backup restore ==== 
-The updates that are being installed during an update request can make the system unstable so by default they are not included immediately in the backup.\\ 
-Before each update, a “snapshot” of the firmware is done. It contains all the previously applied updates that are considered as "​stable"​. 
-This “snapshot” will be used if a “backup restore” is triggered. \\ 
-If a “backup recovery” is triggered, only the stable updates are restored. Other updates are destroyed. Modifications in rootfs will be lost except [[wiki:​upgrade#​configuration_management_sysupgrade|system upgrade]] files. By default, some system configuration files like the network configuration. ​ 
- 
-To trigger a backup restore execute the following commands: 
-<code bash> 
-kerosd -b 
-reboot 
-</​code>​ 
- 
-\\ 
-==== Stock restore ==== 
-The stock firmware is backuped at production time (or when updated with a KerOS liveburner.ipk file). \\ 
-A “stock restore” will factory reset the station. All data will be lost. 
-To trigger a stock restore execute the following commands: 
-<code bash> 
-kerosd -s  
-reboot 
-</​code>​ 
- 
- 
-===== Store & Restore configuration ===== 
- 
-This functionality from firmware < 4.0 must not be used to store configuration files. In order to save configuration use the [[wiki:​upgrade#​configuration_management_sysupgrade|sysupgrade]] management.
