Backing up/copying configuration

LENNYBBROWN — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 06:42:04 GMT

Is there any way to copy the config from one pc to another? I have it fully populated on my desktop and would rather copy a config to my laptop rather than adding them all one at a time again.

Hmm...no answer to this old question?

Does somebody has meanwhile found a solution for this?

You can try copying System Config file located at

C:\Documents and Settings\<Username>\NetApp\SystemManager\SystemManager.config

Install SM on the new desktop and replace the config file at the above location with the desired one. You should get all the details on the destination pc

Note: We do not recommending copying/manually editing config files as you could lose access to the application if the config file gets corrupted
