Assuming that you have a configuration archive tarball in the current directory, in order to import a virtual server (called “Foo” for example) and all of its dependencies you should use the following command:

```bash
zconf import --include vservers/Foo backup.tar
```

This import will cause the configuration to be replicated across the other members of the cluster.

Similar functionality is also available from within the Admin UI, on the **System > Backups > Partial Backups** page. For more details, see [System > Backups > Partial Backups](docId\:VHZPZs5LQMnBgaKbdTOfZ).
