Replace a solid-state drive
Replacement SSDs contain a pre-installed version of the Citrix ADC software and a generic configu-
ration file (ns.conf). However, it does not contain SSL-related certificates and keys, or custom boot
settings. Configuration files and customized settings must be restored to a replacement drive from a
backup storage location at the customer site, if available. The files to be restored might include:
• /flash/nsconfig/ns.conf: The current configuration file.
• /flash/nsconfig/ZebOS.conf: The ZebOS configuration file.
• /flash/nsconfig/license: The licenses for the Citrix ADC features.
• /flash/nsconfig/ssl: The SSL certificates and keys required for encrypting data to clients or to
back-end servers.
• /nsconfig/rc.netscaler: Customer-specific boot operations (optional).
To replace a solid-state drive:
1. At the Citrix ADC command prompt, exit to the shell prompt. Type:
