Creating A Cli Script - Cisco SCE8000 Configuration Manual

Chapter 2 Command Line Interface

Creating a CLI Script

The CLI scripts feature allows you to record several CLI commands together as a script and play it back.
This is useful for saving repeatable sequence of commands, such as software upgrade. For example, if
you are configuring a group of SCE platforms and you want to run the same configuration commands on
each platform, you could create a script on one platform and run it on all the other SCE platforms. The
available script commands are:
•
•
•
•
At the sce# prompt, type script capture filename.scr where filename.scr is the name of the script, with
Step 1
a scr file extension.
Perform the actions you want to be included in the script.
Step 2
Type script stop.
Step 3
The system saves the script.
The following is an example of recording a script for upgrading software.
sce#script capture upgrade.scr
sce#configure
SCE(config)#boot system new.pkg Verifying package file...
Package file verified OK.
SCE(config)#exit
sce#copy running-config startup-config Writing general configuration file to temporary
