To restore only the system configuration, type:
CSUtil.exe -r config
filename
where filename is the name of the backup file. Press Enter.
CSUtil.exe displays a confirmation prompt.
Step 3
To confirm that you want to perform a restoration and to halt all Cisco Secure
ACS services during the restoration, type Y and press Enter.
CSUtil.exe restores the specified portions of your Cisco Secure ACS data. This
process may take a few minutes.
Note
If the backup file is missing a database component, CSUtil.exe displays
an error message. Such an error message applies only to the restoration of
the missing component. The absence of a database component in a backup
is usually intentional and indicates that the component was empty in
Cisco Secure ACS at the time the backup was created.
Creating a CiscoSecure User Database
You can use the -n option to create a CiscoSecure user database.
Note
Using the -n option requires that you stop the CSAuth service. While CSAuth is
stopped, no users are authenticated.
Caution
Using the -n option erases all user information in the CiscoSecure user database.
Unless you have a current backup or dump of your CiscoSecure user database, all
user accounts are lost when you use this option.
