Ok I read that thread, and I didn't see where it explained how to factory reset a 120. Not as simple as a button that sets you back to defaults? No option to hold a reset, then power on the unit?
With the Astaro v7 it is possible to change the default runlevel at boot time.
To change the runlevel of a single boot session, use the following instructions:
* When the GRUB menu bypass screen appears at boot time, press the Esc key to enter the GRUB menu (within the first three seconds). * Press the [e] key to append a the default boot entry. * Navigate to the line starting with "kernel" and press the [e] key again to append the default kernel. * Add at the end of the boot options line to boot to the desired runlevel. For example, to reset the Astaro you need to load into runlevel 4:
grub edit> ... vga=819 splash=silent 4
* Press Esc and to boot the system
After an (automatic) reboot you can log in via the Webadmin on https://ip.you.defined.on.installation(:4444), set your passwords right and license again and start all over, or insert a working backup.
Medic if you can help me out with the settings for that I would appreciate it very much. I can't find it in the admin manual, astaro's kb, or searches on the internet. Iv'e tried hyperterminal setting with com1 9600, , 8 none and 1, various flow control and auto detect on the terminal, vt100. Whats the trick here? Thanks!
According to a manual I've got laying around, the settings are:
Bits per second: 38400, Data bits: 8, Parity: N (none), Stop bits: 1.
(I think flow control can be turned off).

Hey.... you can also reset a 220 using the front panel buttons, there's a menu there... it's easier than messing with a terminal session. The 110/120 units have a keyboard and VGA port, no serial console needed.

I setup the keyboard/video, works great. I was wondering if setting up a modem to dial in out-of-band to access the unit remotely was feasible. I tried the settings but didn't seem to work on the 120.
I couldn't find those settings anywhere in my ASG V7 manual v7.002. I also downloaded 7.100 manual, couldn't find it there either. Thanks again, I really appreciate the help.
The settings aren't listed in the Software manual. There's a separate manual for the actual Astaro Appliance itself.
Anyhow, given that these are appliances, a quick support case with Astaro would probably get you going again (I'm sure they get the reset question all the time).
