Chassis Conguration Proles
The Chassis Conguration Proles feature enables you to congure the chassis with the chassis conguration proles stored in the
network share or local management station, and also restore conguration of the chassis.
To access the Chassis Conguration Proles page in the CMC web interface, in the system tree, go to Chassis Overview and click Setup
> Proles. The Chassis Conguration Proles page is displayed.
You can perform the following tasks by using the Chassis Conguration Proles feature:
• Congure a chassis using chassis conguration proles in local management station for initial conguration.
• Save the current chassis conguration settings to an XML le on the network share or local management station.
• Restore the chassis conguration.
• Import chassis proles (XML les) to the network share from a local management station.
• Export chassis proles (XML les) from the network share to a local management station.
• Apply, edit, delete, or export a copy of the proles stored on the network share.
Saving Chassis Conguration
You can save the current chassis conguration to an XML le on a network share or local management station. The congurations include
all the chassis properties that can be modied using the CMC web interface and RACADM commands. You can also use the XML le that
is saved to restore the conguration on the same chassis or to congure other chassis.
