NimbostratusHi, I need to backup a vcmp configuration and restore it into another vcmp which has different name, vlan, ips, ...etc. I opened a .ucs backup file, changed the content so it matches the new vcmp (ip, vlan) values, then I compressed the directory back to a new ucs. I uploaded the new ucs to the new vcmp without erros. however, I can't find the configs of vs, pool nodes....
any idea how to fix or achieve this?
thanks.
NimbostratusIf you are replicating configuration shouldn't you be using SCF instead?
NimbostratusOnce you upload a UCS you have to actually apply it. You can either apply it from the CLI or the GUI. I would suggest you use the GUI to upload the UCS and then apply it using the 'restore' button.
You should be aware that your configuration may not load if you don't have all the pre-requisites. A UCS file is not a complete backup of your system. Based on the error message above it looks like you have some custom files (maybe for a sorry page or an APM login form?).
Try using the 'merge' option with the sys config command. Here is a nice write up on the CLI options for the sys config command:

I hope that helps!
