Oracle ILOM's configuration management tasks enable you to:
Back up the Oracle ILOM configuration to a XML file on a remote system.
Use the backup file to restore Oracle ILOM to the backed-up configuration.
Use the backup file to install the backed-up configuration on other Oracle ILOM SPs.
Reset the Oracle ILOM configuration to the default settings.
You can use the Backup and Restore and Reset to Defaults features together in the following ways:
Save the Oracle ILOM configuration to a backup XML file, reset the Oracle ILOM configuration to the default settings, and use the command-line interface (CLI) or web interface to create a new Oracle ILOM configuration.
The privileges assigned to the user account that is used to execute the Backup operation determine how much of the configuration is included in the backup XML file. The Admin (a), User Management (u), Console (c), Reset and Host Control (r), and Read Only (o) roles have full privileges and create the most complete configuration backup file.
Note - For security reasons, if the user account used to execute the Restore operation has fewer privileges than the account used to create the backup file, some of the configurations might not be restored. For each configuration property that is not restored due to lack of privileges, a log entry is created.
Use the CLI or web interface to create a new Oracle ILOM configuration, save the Oracle ILOM configuration to a backup XML file, edit the XML file to remove settings that are unique to a particular system, and perform restore operations to load the backup file to other systems.
Reset the Oracle ILOM configuration to the default settings and restore it using a known good Oracle ILOM configuration backup file.
Given the above capabilities, the following use cases describe how you might typically use these features:
You changed your Oracle ILOM configuration but it no longer works and you want to recover Oracle ILOM by restoring it to a known good configuration. To do this, first reset the Oracle ILOM configuration to the default settings and then perform a Restore operation using the known good configuration.
You want to use the Backup and Restore feature to replicate an Oracle ILOM configuration onto other systems. To do this, create a standard Oracle ILOM configuration, back up the configuration, edit the backed up XML file to remove settings that are unique to a particular system (for example, the IP address), then perform Restore operations to replicate the configuration onto the other systems.
You created a minimum Oracle ILOM configuration but to make it complete you need to configure a number of users (Oracle ILOM supports a maximum of 10 active user sessions per service processor). If you have backed up a configuration previously that has the same users, you can edit the XML file so that it only includes the user information and then simply perform a Restore operation to overlay the minimum configuration with the configuration that has the user accounts. Reuse of large network configurations such as Active Directory is another use case for this approach.
You can use either the web interface or the CLI to perform configuration management tasks in Oracle ILOM. For more information about these tasks, see:
