CSUtil.exe Options

Note

Most CSUtil.exe options require that you stop the CSAuth service. While the
CSAuth service is stopped, Cisco Secure ACS does not authenticate users. To
determine if an option requires that you stop CSAuth, refer to the detailed topics
about the option. For a list of options and references to the detailed topics about
each option, see

CSUtil.exe Options, page D-3

.

You can combine many of the options in a single use of CSUtil.exe. If you are new
to using CSUtil.exe, we recommend performing only one option at a time, with
the exception of those options, such as -p, that must be used in conjunction with
other options.

Experienced CSUtil.exe users may find it useful to combine CSUtil.exe options,
such as in the following example, which would first import AAA client
configurations and then generate a dump of all Cisco Secure ACS internal data:

CSUtil.exe -i newnases.txt -d
