Displaying the ACE Boot Configuration

Restarting the ACE

Caution
OL-11157-01
To display the current BOOT environment variable and configuration register
setting, use the show bootvar command in Exec mode.
For example, to display the BOOT environment variable settings, enter:
host1/Admin# show bootvar
BOOT variable =
"image:/c4710ace-mz.3.0.0_AB0_0.488.bin;image:/c4710ace-mz.3.0.0
_AB0_0.453.bin"
Configuration register is 0x1
To reboot the ACE directly from its CLI and reload the configuration, use the reload
command in Exec mode. The reload command reboots the ACE and performs a
full power cycle of both the hardware and software. The reset process can take
several minutes. Any open connections with the ACE are dropped after you enter
the reload command.
Configuration changes that are not written to the Flash partition are lost after a
reload. Before rebooting, enter the copy running-conf startup-config command
in Exec mode to store the current configuration in Flash memory. If you fail to save
your configuration changes, the ACE reverts to its previous settings upon restart.
When you specify reload, the ACE prompts you for confirmation and performs a
cold restart of the ACE:
host1/Admin# reload
This command will reboot the system
Save configurations for all the contexts. Save? [yes/no]: yes
Generating configuration....
