Hi Chuck,
If you're looking to add a device and have it automatically obtain a configuration such as temperature threshold, load alarm etc then no, there is no automated way to do this.
You mentioned using user config file though. Are you setting everything up by sending a config.ini using the configuration utility? If so, DCE has an easier way than that. You have the option to use the Device-->APC SNMP DeviceConfiguration option. If you have NMCs with 6.x and higher firmware, you can't set any user info on the device. That changed a while back and I don't believe the old version of DCE you mentioned has that option:
For most other settings however, you can use the standard device configuration and can push certain configuration options to devices.You can also save that configuration as a template and the next time you add a device, you can push that template...just not automatically.
You may want to consider asking for a feature request for this which can be done here:
Thanks,
Steve.
