Coordinate multiple installations?

Is there any way to export and import Fences settings or configuration?

Fences is a good fit for our club environment where we have five PCs. I plan on purchasing five copies and installing one on each. We would like all five computers to have the same Fences configuration. It looks like I will have to do this by setting up Fences on each PC individually. I can't find anything like a config file (boy am I old) or any import/export functionality. I can see where this might be hard to implement anyway.

So I'm just asking if there's a smarter way to do this, instead of one-by-one. Thanks!

I think you'd want to use Snapshots.  You'd still have to restore (i.e., load) the snapshots on each machine individually, but much better than rebuilding from scratch:

DaveRI  -- OK, that should do it, thanks. I didn't think of using the snapshot feature for export/import. The data is also not stored where I thought it would be but the support page you pointed me to explains where it is. Thanks!
