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 Management Cards 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.

Transferring the file to a single Management Card. To transfer the .ini file to another Network

Management Card, do either of the following:

• From the Web interface of the receiving Management Card, select the Administration tab,

General on the top menu bar, and User Config File on the left navigation menu. Enter the full

path of the file, or use Browse.

• Use any file transfer protocol supported by Network Management Cards, i.e., FTP, FTP Client,

SCP, or TFTP. The following example uses FTP:

a. From the folder containing the copy of the customized .ini file, use FTP to log in to the

Management Card to which you are exporting the .ini file:

ftp> open ip_address

b. Export the copy of the customized .ini file to the root directory of the receiving

Management Card:

ftp> put filename.ini

Exporting the file to multiple Management Cards. To export the .ini file to multiple Network

Management Cards:

• Use FTP or SCP, but write a script that incorporates and repeats the steps used for exporting the

file to a single Management Card.

• Use a batch processing file and the American Power Conversion .ini file utility.

To create the batch file and use the utility, see Release Notes: ini File Utility, version

1.0 on the APC Network Management Card Utility CD.
