Archiving Configurations and Managing Them
Using Archive Management
The Archive Management application maintains an active archive of the configuration of devices
managed by RME. It enables you to perform the following tasks:
• Fetch, archive, and deploy device configurations.
• Search and generate reports on archived data
• Compare and label configurations, compare configurations with a baseline, and check for
compliance.
You can also perform some of the Archive Management tasks using command line utility cwcli config.
You can also export the configuration data using the
cwcli export config command. See CLI Utilities for further details on cwcli config and cwcli
export config commands.
This chapter gives information on performing:
• Archive Management tasks (see Archive Management allows you to: for details).
• Archive Management administrative tasks (see Performing Archive Management Administrative
Tasks for details).
• Configuration Management administrative tasks (see Performing Configuration Management
Administrative Tasks for details).
