Managed Rack PDU

Use an .ini File
Path: Administration > General > User Config File
Use the settings from one Rack PDU to configure another. Retrieve the config.ini file
from the configured Rack PDU, customize that file (e.g., to change the IP address), and
upload the customized file to the new Rack PDU. The file name can be up to 64
characters, and must have the.ini suffix.
Instead of uploading the file to one Rack PDU, you can export the file to multiple Rack
PDUs by using an FTP or SCP script.
Status Reports the progress of the upload. The upload succeeds even if the file contains
errors, but a system event reports the errors in the event log.
Upload Browse to the customized file and upload it so that the current Rack PDU can use it to
set its own configuration.
To retrieve and customize the file of a configured Rack PDU, see How to
Export Configuration Settings.
