You can restore the previously exported system configuration when you reinstall Orchestrator or if a system failure occurs.
If you use the import procedure for cloning the Orchestrator configuration, the vCenter Server plug-in configuration becomes invalid and non-working, because a new ID of the vCenter Server plug-in is generated. After you import the Orchestrator configuration, you must provide a valid password for each registered vCenter Server instance. For more information about configuring the vCenter Server plug-in, see Configure the vCenter Server 5.1 Plug-In.
