Loading the Cisco Secure ACS Database from a Dump File
You can use the -l option to overwrite all CiscoSecure ACS internal data from a
dump text file. This option replaces the existing all CiscoSecure ACS internal
data with the data in the dump text file. In effect, the -l option initializes all
Cisco Secure ACS internal data before loading it from the dump text file. Dump
text files are created using the -d option. While the -d option only produces dump
text files that are named dump.txt, the -l option allows for loading renamed dump
files. For more information about creating dump text files, see the “Creating a
Cisco Secure ACS Database Dump File” section on page E-9.
You can use the -p option in conjunction with the -l option to reset
password-aging counters.
Note Using the -l option requires that you stop the CSAuth service. While CSAuth
is stopped, no users are authenticated.
To load all CiscoSecure ACS internal data from a text file, follow these steps:
Step 1 On the Cisco Secure ACS server, open an MS DOS command prompt and change
directories to the directory containing CSUtil.exe. For more information about the
location of CSUtil.exe, see the “Location of CSUtil.exe and Related Files” section
on page E-2.
