DSView 3 Software Plug-In for Avocent PM PDUs : Configuration Tools

Configuration Tools
The Avocent PM PDU plug-in is integrated with the DSView 3 management software tools to perform the tasks listed. You may access these tools from the appliance’s Overview page.
Back up the PDU configuration data to the DSView 3 server database. The saved configuration includes the configuration not exposed in the Web Manager.
Restore a previously saved PDU configuration. The restored configuration includes the configuration not exposed in the Web Manager.
Create a configuration template with a specific name. The saved configuration template includes the Web Manager pages listed in Table 5 beginning on page 4 and can later be used to replicate this PDU configuration to multiple PDUs, or to restore the configuration to a replacement PDU.
Save Current Configuration
Apply Current Configuration
Restore to Factory Configuration
Restore to factory default values and reboot the PDU. Only the configuration of the running image will be restored to factory default. After reboot, the PDU will need to be deleted and then added again to the DSView 3 software if it was previously added in Secure more or if the PDU gets a different IP from DHCP.
In addition to the save and apply configuration tools described in the previous table, you can also perform the following tasks by selecting an appliance on the Unit Views page and selecting the Operations drop-down.
