Can you please post the error message you are getting while running "b load" ?

 

 

Regarding the "ssl profile error":

 

 

Did you restore the configuration on the same hardware or a new one (please also check the hostname, as mentioned in another post)?

 

 

If it's a new one AND your SSL private keys have been encrypted (there is a passphrase in the ssl profile), then you are in trouble. The SSL keys will be encrypted on disk with a hardware specific key. So, restoring the config on a new hardware will fail for the SSL private keys. If there are no SSL Keys (as not restored from backup), you might get those errors for the SSL profile!

 

 

I ran into this lately. Apparently there is no solution except

 

 

a.) doing a config sync after you added the new hardware to an existing cluster (apparently hardware keys will be snyced somehow in a cluster)

 

 

b.) re-importing the original ssl keys.
