Configuring File Attributes - 3Com E4500-24 Cli Configuration Manual

Configuring File Attributes

You can configure and view the main attribute or backup attribute of the file used for the next startup of
a switch, and change the main or backup attribute of the file.
Follow these steps to configure file attributes:
To do...
Configure the app file with the
main attribute for the next
startup
Configure the app file with the
backup attribute for the next
startup
Configure the Web file and its
attribute
Switch the file attributes
between main and backup
Specify to enable user to use
the customized password to
enter the BOOT menu
Display the information about
the app file used as the startup
file
Display information about the
Web file used by the device
Before configuring the main or backup attribute for a file in the fabric, make sure the file already
exists on all devices in the fabric.
The configuration of the main or backup attribute of a Web file takes effect immediately without
restarting the switch.
After upgrading a Web file, you need to specify the new Web file in the Boot menu after restarting
the switch or specify a new Web file by using the boot web-package command. Otherwise, Web
server cannot function normally.
Currently, a configuration file has the extension of cfg and resides in the root directory of the Flash
memory.
For the detailed configuration of configuration file attributes, refer to the Configuration File
Management module in this manual.
