Editing an Existing Configuration File
Editing a configuration file allows you to open and edit a configuration file that you have
previously saved. After you edit the configuration file, you can view the Upgrade
Summary, and, if applicable, proceed with the upgrade as configured.
To edit a configuration file
1. On the Configuration page, click Edit Configuration File.
2. Do one of the following to open the file:
•
In the Locate Configuration File dialog box, type the full path name and file
name for the configuration file next to Configuration File.
•
Click Browse to locate the file using a file browser. (The browser displays only
files with the .Config extension.) Click the file in the file browser, then click
Open to select the file.
3. In the Locate Configuration File dialog box, click Load to open the configuration
file.
When you edit a configuration file, the file opens on the Disk Selection page.

Performing an Upgrade with No Configuration File
If the upgrade you want to perform does not require any special settings, you can
proceed without a configuration file.
For example, if you have only one system disk, and you just want to split the system
briefly to test how a hotfix would affect the operating system without committing the
changes, you might not need a configuration file.
To proceed without a configuration file, click No Configuration File on the
Configuration page. The Active Upgrade console immediately displays the Active
Upgrade page and runs a readiness check. If your system meets the
prerequisites for
the Active Upgrade process, you can split the system at this time.
