Bulk import of Router and switch configuration Files

We recently had our NCM Server go down hard.  Until the data off the previous server drives are recovered, I have lost everything(Database included). I had to rebuild NCM on another machine.    We periodically backup the Configurations to a network drive.    I see there is a way to import one configuration file at a time but does anyone know of a way to do a bulk import of my older configuration files?

  • Hi,

    Unfortunately not. It's a feature request -- .

  • I am using the NCM evaluation software on my personal PC and try to import a few cisco device configs into the NCM to test, but I could not find the way to import each config into the NCM. The SolarWinds instruction shows I have to select a node first before I can import the config, but I don't have any nodes in NCM modules yet because I have not connected it to the network. You mentioned you could import single config into NCM. Could you please provide instruction how to do that? thanks

  • A config is usually tied to a node in the NCM Database. So as long as you don’t have nodes in NCM, importing configs doesn’t work like NCM is designed.
