Prepare a USB Stick for an Auto Configuration File

Do the following in order to prepare your USB stick -

  1. Plug the USB stick into a client machine.
  2. Create an empty file named !automatic_config.
  3. Create a file named credential that contains the SX II username and password. Use the following syntax -

    username=<user name>

    password=<password>

    Note: This is an Administrator user only. No other level user can use this function.

  4. Create a script file named <Device_Type>_<Serial_Number_Of_Device>.autoscript containing all of the scripts that need to be executed on the appliance to configure it.
  5. Copy all above files to the top directory of the USB stick.
  6. Remove any file named <Device_Type>_<Serial_Number_Of_Device>_result.txt.
  7. Following are examples of the files you should have on your USB in the end.

    !automatic_config

    credential

    DSX2_QVY4C00007.autoscript

  8. Add other script files for other devices on the same USB stick, if needed.
  9. Safely remove the USB stick from the client machine when done.
