Automatically Moving the VACL and QoS ACL Configuration to Flash Memory
Moving the VACL and QoS ACL configuration to Flash memory is done automatically only during
system software upgrades and then only if there is not sufficient NVRAM for the upgrade. If there is not
enough NVRAM to perform a software upgrade, the QoS ACL and VACL configuration is deleted from
NVRAM and the ACL configuration is automatically moved to Flash memory. When this occurs, these
syslog messages display:
1999 Sep 01 17:00:00 %SYS-1-CFG_FLASH:ACL configuration moved to bootflash:switchapp.cfg
1999 Sep 01 17:00:00 %SYS-1-CFG_ACL_DEALLOC:NVRAM full. Qos/Security ACL configuration
deleted from NVRAM.
The VACL and QoS ACL configuration has now been successfully moved to Flash memory. During this
process, the system also does the following:
•
•
If an error occurs during the upgrade, these syslog messages display:
1999 Sep 01 17:00:00 %SYS-1-CFG_FLASH_ERR:Failed to write ACL configuration to
bootflash:switchapp.cfg
1999 Sep 01 17:00:00 %SYS-1-CFG_ACL_DEALLOC:NVRAM full. Qos/Security ACL configuration
deleted from NVRAM.
If you receive these error messages, the VACL and QoS ACL configuration is stored in DRAM only.
You need to make more space available in Flash memory and then save the configuration to Flash
memory (as described in the
on page
configuration to NVRAM using the set config acl nvram command.
