Usage Guidelines
•
You should verify that your switch's /flash directory has enough available memory to hold the new
files and directories that will result from using the cp -r command.
•
A file may be copied to a new location; you are not required to copy a file to the same directory that
contains the original.
•
Be sure to separate path directories and file names with a slash (/). Refer to the examples below.
•
Up to 255 characters may be used for a fully qualified path.
•
A path can contain up to a maximum of seven (7) directories including /flash.
•
As with files names, up to thirty-two (32) characters may be used for a directory name.
•
File and directory names can include only the following character types: a-z, A-Z, 0-9, dashes (-),
dots (.), and underscores (_).
•
This command can also be used on the secondary CMM.

subdirectories and files. Be sure to include a space between the syntax
cp and -r (i.e., cp -r).
Specifies the path containing the original file to be copied. If no path
name is specified, the command assumes the current path.
The name of the existing file to be copied.
Specifies the destination path for the resulting file copy. If no destina-
tion path is specified, the file copy will be placed in the current path.
The new user-defined file name for the resulting file copy. If you are
copying a file to the same directory as the original, the file name for the
copy must be different from the original. Up to thirty-two (32) charac-
