NAME
ucs - Loads or saves a UCS (.ucs) file.
MODULE
sys
SYNTAX
Configure the ucs component within the sys module using the syntax in the following sections.
MODIFY
save ucs [file name]
options:
no-private-key
passphrase
load ucs [file name]
options:
include-chassis-level-config
no-license
no-platform-check
passphrase
platform-migrate
reset-trust
delete ucs [ file name ]
DISPLAY
list ucs
show ucs [file name]
DESCRIPTION
You can use the ucs component to save the running configuration of the system into a UCS file. Additionally,
you can modify the running configuration of the system by loading an existing UCS file.
When you save a UCS file, the file is saved to the default directory, /var/local/ucs.
When you load a UCS file in shell mode, the system searches for the file using the relative path to the
default directory (/var/local/ucs). When you load a UCS file in bash mode, the system searches the current
directory first. If the file is not found in the current directory, the default directory is then searched.
EXAMPLES
save ucs myucs
Saves the running configuration of the system into the file myucs.ucs.
load ucs myucs
Modifies the running configuration of the system by loading the configuration contained in the myucs.ucs file.
delete ucs myucs
Delete myucs.ucs in the default directory, /var/local/ucs/.
list ucs
Displays existing UCS files in the default directory, /var/local/ucs/.
OPTIONS
include-chassis-level-config
During restore of the UCS file, include chassis level configuration that is shared among boot volume
sets. For example, cluster default configuration.
no-license
Performs a full restore of the UCS file and all the files it contains, with the exception of the license
file. The option must be used to restore a UCS on RMA devices (Returned Materials Authorization).
no-platform-check
Bypasses the platform check and allows a UCS that was created using a different platform to be installed.
By default (without this option), a UCS created from a different platform is not allowed to be installed.
no-private-key
Indicates that the UCS file can be saved without private key information.
passphrase
Specifies the passphrase that is necessary to load the specified UCS file.
platform-migrate
Ignore the configuration items specific to a particular platform. The platform-specific objects already
present on the device are not removed or modified. The ones included in the UCS archive are not loaded.
This option is not valid for UCS archives from systems provisioned with modules other than LTM and GTM.
If the UCS comes from a system running any release of TMOS version 10, only LTM (not GTM) is supported.
This option implies no-license and no-platform-check.
reset-trust
When specified, the device and trust domain certs and keys are not loaded from the UCS. Instead, a new
set is regenerated.
