Metered Rack PDU

How to Export Configuration Settin

Retrieve and Export the .ini File

Summary of the procedure

An Administrator can retrieve the .ini file of one Rack PDU and export it to another Rack

PDU or to multiple Rack PDUs.

1. Configure the Rack PDU to have the settings you want to export.

2. Retrieve the .ini file from that Rack PDU.

3. Customize the .ini file (to change at least the TCP/IP settings) and make a copy to

export.

4. Use any of the file transfer protocols supported by the Rack PDU to transfer the

copied file to one or more additional Rack PDUs. (To transfer the file to multiple

Rack PDUs simultaneously, write an FTP or SCP script that repeats the steps for

transferring the file to a single Rack PDU.)

Each receiving Rack PDU uses the file to reconfigure its own settings and then deletes

it.
