Usage Guidelines Enabling active equals saved ensures that you do not have to perform the copy running-config
startup-config command to save the FICON configuration as well as the running configuration. If your
switch or fabric consists of multiple FICON-enabled VSANs, and one of these VSANs has active equals
saved enabled, changes made to the non-FICON configuration causes all FICON-enabled configurations
to be saved to the IPL file.
Refer to the Cisco MDS 9000 Family CLI Configuration Guide for further information.
Note
Examples The following example enables the automatic save feature for a VSAN.
switch(config)# ficon vsan 2
switch(config-ficon)# active equals saved
The following example disables the automatic save feature for this VSAN.
switch(config-ficon)# no active equals saved
