Operation Manual – File System Management
Quidway S3100 Series Ethernet Switches
If you execute this command with the safely keyword specified, the system saves
the current configuration in the safe mode. Although this mode takes more time
than the fast mode, the configuration can be saved to the Flash even if the switch
restarts or is powered off when the saving operation is being processed.
The fast mode is recommended under the circumstances where the power systems are
reliable, while the safe mode is recommended when power system is unreliable or you
are performing a remote maintenance operation.
Note:
If you execute the save command with the cfgfile argument not specified, the
current configuration is saved in the configuration file with which the switch latest
starts. If the switch starts using the default configuration, the current configuration is
saved in the default configuration file.
To make a switch to adopt the current configuration when it starts the next time,
save the current configuration using the save command before restarting the
switch.
