Compacting the CiscoSecure User Database
Step 2 If the CSAuth service is running, type:
net stop csauth
and press Enter.
Result: The CSAuth service stops.
Step 3 Type:
CSUtil.exe -l filename
where filename is the name of the dump file you want CSUtil.exe to use to load
Cisco Secure ACS internal data. Press Enter.
Result: CSUtil.exe displays a confirmation prompt for overwriting all
Cisco Secure ACS internal data with the data in the dump text file.
Note Overwriting the database does not preserve any data; instead, after the
overwrite, the database contains only what is specified in the dump text file.
Step 4 To confirm that you want to replace all Cisco Secure ACS internal data, type Y
and press Enter.
Result: CSUtil.exe initializes all Cisco Secure ACS internal data, and then loads
Cisco Secure ACS with the information in the dump file specified. This process
may take a few minutes.
Step 5 To resume user authentication, type:
net start csauth
and press Enter.
Compacting the CiscoSecure User Database
Like many relational databases, the CiscoSecure user database handles the
deletion of records by marking deleted records as deleted but not removing the
record from the database. Over time, your CiscoSecure user database may be
substantially larger than is required by the number of users it contains. To reduce
the CiscoSecure user database size, you can compact it periodically.
