Import Nodes from a File

When you have multiple physical nodes to add, you can use this method. You can import in the following scenarios:

• When you have multiple nodes to add, instead of adding one node at a time, you can create a file a CSV or TXT file in the <NodeName>, <UserName>, <Password> format. Now import this file and all the nodes are added to the Console at one go.
• When you saved nodes as a file using the Export option.

Follow these steps:

1. From the Add nodes by drop-down list, select Importing from file.
2. Click Browse to select your saved CSV or TXT file.
3. Click Upload.

   The nodes are displayed at the left pane.

6. Select the check boxes of verified nodes, and click Add to List.

   The selected nodes move to the right pane.
