3: Manage level
Parameters
directory: Specifies a configuration archive directory, a case-insensitive string of 1 to 63 characters. The
directory must take the format storage-media name:/folder name. In an IRF fabric, this directory must
already exist on the master.
filename-prefix: Specifies a file name prefix for configuration archives, a case-insensitive string of 1 to 30
characters. Valid characters are letters, digits, underscores (_), and hyphens (-).
Description
Use archive configuration location to configure the directory and file name prefix for archiving the
configuration.
Use undo archive configuration location to restore the default.
By default, no configuration archive directory or configuration archive file name prefix has been set.
Before archiving the running configuration, either manually or automatically, you must configure a
directory and file name prefix for configuration archives.
In an IRF fabric, the configuration archive function saves running configuration only on the master device.
To make sure the system can archive running configuration after a master/subordinate switchover, create
the directory on all IRF members.
Configuration archives take the file name format prefix_serial number.cfg, for example,
20080620archive_1.cfg and 20080620archive_2.cfg. The serial number is automatically assigned from
1 to 1000, increasing by 1. After the serial number reaches 1000, it restarts from 1.
After you change the file directory or file name prefix, or reboot the device, the old configuration archives
are regarded as common configuration files, the configuration archive counter resets, and the display
archive configuration command does not display them. The serial number for new configuration archives
starts from 1.
The undo archive configuration location command disables the configuration archive function (both
manual and automatic approaches), restores the default settings of the archive configuration interval
and archive configuration max commands, and clears all configuration archives, in addition to
removing the configuration archive directory and file name prefix settings.
Examples
# To configure the configuration archive directory and archive file name prefix as flash:/archive/ and
my_archive:
Create the directory on the master.
1.
<Sysname> mkdir archive
.
%Created dir flash:/archive.
Create the directory on IRF member 2. (Repeat this step to create the directory on all IRF members.)
2.
<Sysname> mkdir slot2#flash:/archive
%Created dir slot2#flash:/archive.
