Modifying UFM Configuration Files

Procedure_Heading_Icon.PNG To modify UFM configuration files:

  1. Export the configuration to a "zip" file. 

    ufm-appliance > enable
    ufm-appliance # configure terminal
    ufm-appliance [ mgmt-sa ] (config) # ufm configuration export
    
  2. Upload the file to a USB storage device or to a remote server. 

    ufm-appliance [ mgmt-sa ] (config) # ufm configuration upload ufm-config-20121128-180857.zip scp://mlnx:123456@172.30.3.201/tmp
    
  3. Extract the "zip" file ("conf" folder).

  4. Perform any required modification to the files placed in the "conf" folder.

  5. Pack the "conf" folder back into the "zip" file.

  6. Fetch the file to the appliance. 

    ufm-appliance [ mgmt-sa ] (config) # ufm configuration fetch scp://mlnx:123456@172.30.3.201/tmp/ufm-config-20121128-180857-modified.zip
    
  7. [Optional] Stop UFM server.
    Some parameters can be modified and have effect without restarting UFM®-SDN SM. 

    ufm-appliance [ mgmt-sa ] (config) # no ufm start
    
  8. Import the configuration from the "zip" file. 

    ufm-appliance [ mgmt-sa ] (config) # ufm configuration import ufm-config-20121128-180857-modified.zip
    

    Due to the configuration import, a signal is sent to the SM.

  9. [Optional, only if Step 5 is performed] Start UFM server. 

    ufm-appliance [ mgmt-sa ] (config) # ufm start
    Starting UFM, please wait...
    ufm-appliance [ mgmt-sa ] (config) # show ufm status
