telljcl Posted August 17, 2018 Posted August 17, 2018 Want to make sure I don't screw this up - my PLM (2413s) was fried by storm - totally dead. I've had this same PLM for about 10 years I think, been fine until now so I've never had to do this. Have another on the way, but want to make sure I go about replacing it via the Admin Console the right way, so links to old PLM get wiped, and all those same links are properly written to the new PLM and I have no other issues. Do I "Restore PLM" first or "Delete PLM" first? Any guidance would be appreciated!

I understand that you might not want to issue a "Delete PLM" command, as you'll get a new PLM with no links at all when you eventually do the "Restore PLM".
