Purpose

To provide instructions on how to export device configuration files from NCM.

Resolution

How to export all device configuration files from Smarts NCM to a file on local disk.

You can save the device configurations in Smarts NCM to a text file on a local machine using the Smarts NCM console interface, or using the extract_config.sh script installed with Smarts NCM. The following sections explain each of these methods.

Using the Smarts NCM console
To save the device configurations to text files on a local system disk from the Smarts NCM console, do the following:

In Smarts NCM, navigate to the following location:

Networks > [Network Name] > Devices

Select the devices with the configurations you want to save.

Right click and select Save to > Save to File.

Specify the location on the local system disk where you would like to save the configurations text file (*.txt).

Using the extract_config.sh script

The extract_config.sh script is installed with Smarts NCM in the <Smarts NCM BASEDIR>\tools directory.  This is run on the Application Server in your NCM environment.

The extract config utility run by this script will save all the device configurations for a particular network to a text file. You can run this script by using crontab.

Available script options when running the extract_config.sh script include:

network network_name

outputdir path_name

user user_name

password user_password

ext file_extension_name

debug

Example command syntax to run extract_config.sh script

The following example command syntax would run the extract_config.sh script, extract all the Smarts NCM device configurations (running and startup) from the "Austin" network, and save it in /opt/Austin directory. The file extension would be *.csv.

./extract_config.sh -network Austin -outputdir /opt/ -user sysadmin -password sysadmin -ext csv
