File System Commands at Backup Boot Prompt
Description
Change directories.
Syntax: cd "<path>"
Example: cd "C:FW"
Copies a file from one location to another.
Syntax: copy "<source file name>", "<destination file name>"
Example: copy "C:FW/pxm1e_002.001.000.000_bt.fw", "C:FW/test"
Deletes a file.
Syntax: remove "<file name>"
Example: remove "test"
List directory contents using long format, which includes the name, size, modification
date, and modification time for each file. This command also displays the total disk
space and free disk space.
Syntax: ll ["path"]
Example: ll "C:FW"
Note When you first start a session in backup boot mode, the present working
directory is a directory on a remote server as specified by the runtime software
bootChange command. If you enter the ll command and the remote server is
unavailable or does not exist, the switch appears to hang as the switch attempts
to access the remote server. To avoid this, select a directory on the C: drive with
the cd command first or specify a path with the ll command. To reboot the PXM
card when it is searching for a remote server, press Control-X.
List directory contents using the short format, which displays filenames, total disk
space, and free disk space.
Syntax: ls ["path"]
Example: ls
Display the present working directory. When you first start a session in backup boot
mode, the present working directory is a directory on a remote server as specified by
the runtime software bootChange command. To change to a directory on the C: drive,
enter the cd command.
Syntax: pwd
Example: pwd
Renames a file.
Syntax: rename "<old file name>", "<new file name>"
Example: rename "test", "deleteme"
Lists the login name for the current session. Since there is no user login procedure for
backup boot mode, the username reported by the whoami command is the username
configured by the runtime software bootChange command for remote server access.
Syntax: whoami
Example: whoami
