Setting Config_File Synchronization - Cisco WS-X6066-SLB-APC - Content Switching Module Software Manual

Setting the Configuration Register
To specify if the auto-config file should be used to overwrite the NVRAM configuration or if the file
configuration should be appended to what is currently in NVRAM, perform this task in privileged mode:
Task
Specify if the auto-config file should be used to
overwrite the NVRAM configuration or if the file
configuration should be appended to what is
currently in NVRAM.
This example shows how to specify that the auto-config file be used to overwrite the NVRAM
configuration:
Console> (enable) set boot config-register auto-config overwrite
Configuration register is 0x12F
ignore-config: disabled
auto-config: recurring, overwrite, sync disabled
console baud: 9600
boot: image specified by the boot system commands
Console> (enable)
This example shows how to specify that the auto-config file be appended to what is currently in
NVRAM:
Console> (enable) set boot config-register auto-config append
Configuration register is 0x12F
ignore-config: disabled
auto-config: recurring, append, sync disabled
console baud: 9600
boot: image specified by the boot system commands
Console> (enable)

Setting CONFIG_FILE Synchronization

This command allows you to enable synchronization to force the auto-config file(s) to synchronize
automatically to the standby supervisor engine. The file(s) are kept consistent with what is on the active
supervisor engine. The default is disabled. These events can trigger a synchronization check and a
synchronization (if necessary):
•
•
•
•
The CONFIG_FILE variable from the active supervisor engine is made identical on the standby
supervisor engine. Each auto-config file on the active supervisor engine is compared against each
corresponding auto-config file on the standby supervisor engine. Two files are considered identical if
their lengths and CRC are the same. If a file on the standby supervisor engine is not identical to the file
on the active supervisor engine, a new file is generated on the standby supervisor engine with the name
of the file on the active supervisor engine. If a file with that name already exists on the standby
supervisor engine, it is overwritten.
