Excel. The inventory report .CSV file can be imported into the template by selecting the Data → From Text in MS Excel.
After the inventory report is imported into MS Excel, and if a message is displayed asking you for additional information,

Configuring Multiple CMCs Using RACADM

Using RACADM, you can configure one or more CMCs with identical properties.
When you query a specific CMC card using its group ID and object ID, RACADM creates the racadm.cfg
configuration file from the retrieved information. By exporting the file to one or more CMCs, you can configure your
controllers with identical properties in a minimal amount of time.
