Customizing. You must customize the file before you export it.
1. Use a text editor to customize the file.
• Section headings, keywords, and pre-defined values are not case-sensitive, but
string values that you define are case-sensitive.
• Use adjacent quotation marks to indicate no value. For example, LinkURL1=""
indicates that the URL is intentionally undefined.
• Enclose in quotation marks any values that contain leading or trailing spaces or
are already enclosed in quotation marks.
• To export scheduled events, configure the values directly in the .ini file.
• To export a system time with the greatest accuracy, if the receiving Rack PDUs
can access a Network Time Protocol server, configure enabled for NTPEnable:
NTPEnable=enabled
Alternatively, reduce transmission time by exporting the [SystemDate/Time]
section as a separate .ini file.
• To add comments, start each comment line with a semicolon (;).
2. Copy the customized file to another file name in the same folder:
• The file name can have up to 64 characters and must have the .ini suffix.
• Retain the original customized file for future use. The file that you retain is the
only record of your comments.
