Table 4. Mounting an NFS File System
File Operation
To mount an NFS file system:
The foreign file system remains mounted as long as the device is up and does not reboot. You can run
the file system commands without having to mount or un-mount the file system each time you run a
command. When you save the configuration using the write command, the mount command is saved
to the startup configuration. As a result, each time the device re-boots, the NFS file system is mounted
during start up.
Table 5. Forming a copy
Location
For a remote file location:
NFS File System
Important Points to Remember
• You cannot copy a file from one remote system to another.
• You cannot copy a file from one location to the same location.
• When copying to a server, you can only use a hostname if a domain name server (DNS) server is
configured.
