Cloning a Server
Cloning a server involves copying the configuration files of one server to another. The cloning
operation helps multiple servers having common configuration to maintain backup servers for
high-availability. The following example illustrates how configuration files of server2 is cloned to
server1 within a group.
NOTE: To perform a cloning operation, the target server must already exist with configured
values. After the successful completion of the cloning operation, the source and the target servers
will have the same configuration files.
You can reduce the time required to load a configuration from a HP-UX AAA Server or to save a
configuration to multiple HP-UX AAA Servers by using the Secure Copy Protocol (scp). For more
information on scp, see “Enhancing Loading and Saving Performance Using Secure Copy Protocol”
(page 67).

2. Select the group in the drop-down menu to which the server belongs, under Select a group
for administration.
