How do I add multiple client nodes with similar credentials at the single time using the Config.ini file?

Problem:

I have same credentials for multiple client nodes. Can I add all the nodes from any configuration file, instead of adding single node each time by running Arcserve UDP Capacity Planning Tool, Scan nodes, Add Node?

Solution:

A file by name "Config.ini" is available in the folder where you copy Arcserve UDP Data Store Capacity Planning Tool binaries.

Firstly, add one node to Arcserve UDP Data Store Capacity Planning Tool and see the following entry in the Config file.

Count=1

[Node0]

NodeName=10.60.21.160s

UserName=administrator

PassWord=NdmbsfoA3124 

Note: The password is encrypted.

Now, if you want to add 10 more nodes which have the same user credentials, you can simply copy the first node data (represented above) content and update the count accordingly as shown next.

Count=10

[Node0]

NodeName=10.60.21.160

UserName=administrator

PassWord=NdmbsfoA3124 

[Node1]

NodeName=10.60.21.161

UserName=administrator

PassWord=NdmbsfoA3124 

[Node2]

NodeName=10.60.21.162

UserName=administrator

PassWord=NdmbsfoA3124 

And so on till [Node 10].
