File Management Commands
Because the 8100fl switch allows a wide variety of file storage activities to a
number of devices, it provides basic file management operations to
manipulate these files. In these operations, wherever a "file" is specified, it
may be specified as a URL indicating the file system. If you omit the file system,
the present working directory is assumed. Use the file management
commands in Privileged Exec mode to display, rename, and delete the
configuration files stored on the primary management module. For a list of
file management commands, see
Relative file and directory names can be used for file operations. For example,
if you are in the flash:/ directory and want to display a file named "history",
you have the option to type any of the following commands: more history, or
more flash:/history, or more flash:history to display the file in the CLI.

File Management Commands
Command
Description
cd
The cd command changes the present
working directory of a user session from one
file system to another. If target-file-system
allows subdirectories, the cd command
allows users to move into those
subdirectories as well. Only file systems
residing on hard drives may have
subdirectories. The target-file-system must
be either a logical or physical file system; it
cannot be a remote file system.
pwd
The pwd command shows the user session's
present working directory.
