Restoring Chassis Conguration Prole

You can restore the conguration of a chassis by importing the backup le (.xml or .bak) on the local management station or the network

share to which the chassis congurations were saved. The congurations include all the properties available through the CMC web

interface, RACADM commands, and settings.

To restore the chassis conguration, perform the following tasks:

Go to the Chassis Conguration Proles page. In the Restore Conguration > Restore Chassis Conguration section, click Browse

and select the backup le to import the saved chassis conguration.

2 Click Restore Conguration to upload an encrypted backup le (.bak) or a .xml stored prole le to the CMC.

The CMC web interface returns to the login page after a successful restore operation.

NOTE: If the backup les (.bak) of the earlier versions of CMC, are loaded on the latest version of CMC where FIPS is enabled,

recongure all the 16 CMC local user passwords. However, the password of the rst user is reset to "calvin".

NOTE: When a chassis conguration prole is imported from a CMC, which does not support the FIPS feature, to a CMC where

FIPS is enabled, the FIPS remains enabled in the CMC.

NOTE: If you change the FIPS mode in the chassis conguration prole, the DefaultCredentialMitigation is enabled.
